Timesjobs — Resorting to abusive language.

Address:

Andhra Pradesh

I had received today a call from Timesjobs from Mr. Sudhanshu from Delhi stating that my profile has been checked by a top multinational company and that if I was interested in switching to a high-paying job. He asked if I was looking for change and I said yes and he said what kind of change and I said may be IT and he said that it was HCL which was looking at my resume and I am sure to get a job. He asked me in how many days can I join the new company. After convincing me, he then asked that I have to pay a small nominal fee of around 3000 and I started doubting his intentions. He asked that I pay the amount as soon as possible and if I have got internet connection he can breeze me through the paying procedure. My doubt was confirmed. I asked for a couple of months so that I can prepare myself with some course in IT. He said that HCL cannot wait for so much time and I need to do it ASAP. I asked for a couple of days and he said that the requirement is urgent and I had to pay now. I said to give me in writing of what he had said and he said that it is inside information he is giving and he cannot give anything in writing. I said that I am not interested and he started using threatening language. He said that the call is monitored by HCL and all the multinational companies and they will be blacklist me and I will not be able to get any job in future. I said it is okay with me that they blacklist me, but I am not going to pay anything. Now he started abusing saying that my upbringing was wrong. This ticked me off and I told him to mind his language and to my shock he started using foul language. I gave him back in the same measure.

Everybody please be aware about Timesjobs and the length they go to con us to get money. They can stoop to any level. I have written a complaint to the management of Timesjobs, but reading all the stories about them in the forum, I am doubtful about any feedback or action. Please do to pay any amount to them.
