SSS INDUSTRIAL JOB SERVICES — Fraud by SSS Industiral of Fake Call Letters | |
This is Just to share my recent experience with you and to make all of you Aware about Regarding Fake Call Letters Frauds.
Luckily, I saved my self from being victim of the same! I was out and Postman gave VP Article Post to my mom and ask to pay 525 Rs. Letter was on my name so mom took receipt and said,I will ask my son if he wants it, he will collect it from post office.
I was very shocked so once, I reached home I checked Receipt as I don’t know anything about it and why I got this and what will be in that envelop which I have to collect it from Post office so, I Google it by address printed on Receipt.
SSS Industrial Job Services,
Mulanguntapudu, Singarayakonda,
Andhra Pradesh, 523101
Company Website- http://www.sssindustrialjobs.com/ (I have never visited it earlier)
While fiinding out abt company i found..
This Company is Fraud, sending Call letters to many freshers job seekers. Who may have profile on Job portals etc..as in resume they also disclosed Residential address! If they Pay 525 Rs and accept it, from inside the envelop they got letter printed in Telegu, so most of people cannot understand it and loose money. Maybe amount is not big but indirectly people who don’t have job they take it very seriously and fall into trap of this fraudsters. Better Beawre And Before you give address to any werbsite for any schemes and exciting offers make sure they have very strict privacy policy!
My question is to CYBER CRIME CELL what actions they have taken to stop this crime / fraud?
They may get Residential Address from DataBase Providors or job portals etc.. as in my case I only disclosed my Resedential Address on famous job portal in my Resume, when I made profile few months ago. and this is not new, they are doing it from 1 year or maybe more as previous all complaints I find out is of 2012, They may started this Scam again.
while, Searching i got this many complaints on different site,
Google showed me this page full of complaints - https://www.google.co.in/search?hl=en&gl=in&tbm=nws&authuser=0&q=sss+industiral+jo...⇄

The fake job scam has acquired a new dimension. Scamsters try to con you into shelling out at least Rs525 to accept a VPP parcel that ostensibly contains a call letter for a job. In a faltering economy with massive layoffs, this seems like the latest trick to cheat people. We investigate one such scam
SSS Industrial Job Services, the Andhra Pradesh based placement and recruitment agency is luring job seekers with its fake call letter scam using the Indian Post. This is similar to the value payable postal (VPP) service or cash on delivery (CoD) fraud used by scamsters during the 1990s to dupe thousands of people under the pretext of receiving radio-transistor or mixer-grinder. The parcels usually contained stones or bricks and sometimes just waste papers!
SSS Industrial Job Services is sending the VPPs to job seekers. It may be using the database from any job site for sending call letters. One such VPP landed at my door, where the postman asked my mother to pay Rs525 (Rs500 for the parcel and Rs25 for postal fee). Since I was not at home, my mother refused to accept the parcel and pay any money. Then the postman left a delivery note with my mother asking me to collect the VPP from the post office by paying Rs525.
Since I had no knowledge of SSS Industrial Job Services or any such placement agency, I checked the background of the agency on Internet. There are several complaints about the agency and its VPP parcels that contain fake call letters printed in Telugu. Luckily I have read on your site that, several people have complained about receiving VPP from SSS Industrial Job Services that contain fake call letter.
Even if i accept it as a genuine call letter why should an agency from Andhra Pradesh send call letters to somebody in Mumbai - that too in Telugu, without the person even applying for the job, in the first place?
In short, this is nothing but a fraud and in case you receive such VPP from SSS Industrial Job Services, do not accept the parcel by paying any money. In case you are already duped, then please reach your post office immediately and file a complaint against the agency.
This is what the Indian Post Says About Frauds through VPP
“If a complaint is made by the addressee immediately after the receipt of a value payable postal (VPP) article, that it was sent dishonestly or fraudulently, the Head of the Circle may, if he is satisfied that there are prima facie grounds for believing that the value payable postal article was sent with the intention of defrauding the addressee, withhold the payment to the sender of the money recovered from the addressee. If after making such enquiries as may be necessary, he is fully satisfied that the value payable postal article was sent with this intention, he may order the return of the article to the sender and refund to the addressee the sum of money recovered from him on delivery of the value-payable postal article.”
