AFTER THE SAME HE ASKED ME THAT I HAVE TO DEPOSIT A AMOUNT OF RUPEES 2100/- JUST FOR THE NAME OF SECURITY DEPOSIT REFUNDABLE AFTER THE COMPLETION OF ONE MONTH PERIOD ASKED FOR THE SAME PROCEDURE TO BE DONE AS TO MESSAGE ME TRANSACTION ID FOR THE DEPOSIT. ONE MORE THING, THIS TIME IN THE EVENING HE CALLED ME FROM SOME OTHER NUMBER. I AM QUOTING THE NUMBER HERE-- [protected]. HE ASKED ME TO DO THE SAME IN THE EARLY HOURS ONLY AS THE MANAGER TO WHOM HE IS TO REPORT THE DETAILED INFORMATION AND GET HIS/HER SIGNED APPOINTMENT LETTER, IS TO MOVE OUT OF THE COUNTRY.

ON FRIDAY MORNING, AT 10:04 SHARP, HE CALLED ME AS IF TO KNOW I HAVE LEFT FOR THE BANK OR NOT. I WAS AT HOME ONLY AT THAT TIME. ONE MORE THING TO BE NOTICED IS THAT WHEN I DEPOSITED THE AMOUNT IN THE SAME ACCOUNT NUMBER AS MENTIONED ABOVE, HE WAS SURPRISED TO KNOW THAT I HAVE LISTENED HIM WRONGLY AS IT WAS SUPPOSED TO DEPOSIT RUPEES 3100/- INSTEAD OF RUPEES 2100/-, THAT I HAVE SUBMITTED AND REPORTED HIM THE TRANSACTION ID AS "86229". HE ASKED ME TO DEPOSIT THE REST OF AMOUNT WHICH WAS RUPEES 1000/- AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE TO GET MY CALL LETTER IN MY MAILBOX. AFTER WHICH I AGAIN WENT FOR THE REST OF THE AMOUNT TO BE DEPOSITED, WITH TRANSACTION ID AS "194220". HE ASKED ME TO MAIL ALL THE SCAN DOCUMENTS TO THE MAIL ID AS-- "[protected]@philipsindia.com" OR ELSE IF THE MAIL ID DID NOT RECEIVE THE DOCUMENTS, MAIL THEM TO---- "[protected]@live.in". HE ASKED ME TO WAIT FOR THE GENERATION AND DELIVERY OF THE APPOINTMENT LETTER.

AFTER SOME TIME, IN THE DAY HOURS ONLY, HE CALLED ME AND ASKED FOR ONE MORE SECURITY DEPOSIT OF RUPEES 1200/- FOR ONE MONTH ADVANCE SECURITY FOR A ROOM ACCOMMODATION THERE ONLY. BUT THIS TIME I REFUSED TO WORK WITH PHILIPS AS THEY WERE TAKING SECURITY CHARGES BIT BY BIT TO A GREAT AMOUNT. AFTER MY REFUSAL HE ASKED ME TO WAIT FOR MY NEXT CALL AND HE WILL TALK TO THEM IF IT CAN BE CANCELLED, FOR THE REASON I TOLD HIM THAT I WILL BE STAYING IN LUCKNOW WITH MY BROTHER ONLY. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, I GOT A RETURN CALL AND TOLD ME THAT THE REQUEST , I HAVE MADE IS ACCEPTED. ON THE SAME CALL HE INFORMED ME THAT THE COMPANY IS PROVIDING THE CANDIDATES WITH A "SIM" HAVING A BALANCE OF RUPEES 500/- IN ADVANCE AND I HAVE TO MAKE A DEPOSIT OF RUPEES 540/- FOR THE SAME. I AGREED AND DEPOSITED THE AMOUNT WITH TRANSACTION NUMBER AS-- "373047" FROM THE SAME BRANCH TO THE SAME ACCOUNT. I AGREE TO THE SAME FOR HE TOLD ME THAT AFTER ONE MONTH I WOULD BE RECEIVING TWO CHEQUES-- ONE WITH PAYMENT OF MY SALARY AS RUPEES 13500/- AND THE OTHER WITH AMOUNT DEPOSITED BY ME AT THIS TIME IN TOTAL.

WHEN I INFORMED HIM THE TRANSACTION NUMBER FOR THE LAST TRANSACTION, HE STARTED WITH THAT, I AM IN THE MEETING FOR THE RECRUITMENT AND SAID, "LET ME PUT BEFORE YOU THE FULL SCENARIO OF WHAT ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT, THEY ARE ASKING FOR A DONATION AMOUNT OF RUPEES 20,000/- PER CANDIDATE. ALL I WILL HANDLE, JUST YOU NEED TO DEPOSIT A AMOUNT OF RUPEES 400/- MORE AND I WILL HANDLE THE CASE AND PROVIDE YOU WITH THE SCAN OF THE HARD-COPY OF APPOINTMENT LETTER. SO AND SO, I BECOME A VICTIM OF FORGERY AND FRAUDULENT JOB OFFER AND I HAVE DEPOSITED A SUM TOTAL OF RUPEES 4200/- IN THE SAME ACCOUNT. PLEASE HELP ME OUT SO THAT THE CULPRIT IS BARRED AND FINED FOR A HEAVY PAYMENT, SO THAT NO ANY OTHER PERSON CAN DECEIVE JOB-SEEKERS.

I HOPE I WILL BE HEARD. I AM WAITING FOR THE, AS EARLY AS POSSIBLE RESPONSE, WHICH CAN BE MADE FOR THE WELFARE OF JOB-SEEKERS LIKE ME.

THANK YOU.
TARUN KUMAR
