Fraud In Name Of Consumer Forum — Fraud in name of Consumer Forum India

Address: Karthik Kumar (person name)

There is a person named Karthik kumar who has mentioned himself calling from "Consumer Forum India" reached me on 23rd Jan 2021 and told me that he would get me full refund of my money which i lost with Shine.com (one another fraud group) and he wants 10% of the overall amount for it, which he would refund it along with my money. i agreed and sent him that 10% of money since he mentioned it as per Legal charges.

Today he prepared an invoice and sent to me asking for some more money. What i understood is, he is using the same invoice template (which had the same Invoice number for me as well as for someone else) and making fraud activity by getting money from the affected people who are already struggling for refund. The worst part in it is, he was chatting with me from his whatsapp number and had a Sai Baba photo in it. And kept saying that he is devotee of Sai Baba and always wish to do good for those who are in trouble.

He kept saying that he is talking to bank about my money (even on a 2nd Saturday), while checking with him that all banks across India are on Holiday every 2nd and 4th Saturdays and how he is talking to them, he said these are offline conversations that he can make being part of Consumer Forum India and will get 100% refund of my money.

Finally getting to know today evening that Frauders like him are using all emotions and sentiments of those already in trouble to steal some more money. He is now threatening that he would charge me nearly 2 Lakhs and i have to pay it through court, as if he is a real Consumer Forum counselor. These people either speak emotional or threaten to get what they want. I request my fellow citizens to please be very careful with such people.

While all these happened, i am still struggling to get my refund from Shine.com (a bigger scamming group)
