[Resolved]  Indigo Airlines — fake job interview letter and looting money

Three days ago i got an e-mail from an address stating that i have been shortlisted for an interview which is going to be conducted on 19th of august 2019.in the letter, i was sent, there mentioned an hr named ajay pratap which includes his phone number '[protected]' along with the postal address as indigo office which is located in richmond street banglore. I called him to confirm the authenticity, he told me to pay the caution deposit as mentioned in the letter which was rs9600+ gst to register your application. I was told that this was to confirm my appearance for the interview. As a deceived person i had to send 9600rs. After confirming the payment he called me to notify about my successful profile generation.in the call, i was told to do a fresh payment of rs 11, 328 which includes gst as the previous one wasn't paid along with gst. And at the same time, i was told that my previous transacted fund will be retrieved within a few hours. Later i got an email from mail id with an application letter and the information about receiving of payment. Since that email as i couldn't reach him through the phone. I doubted and submitted my resume directly on the indigo website in which i got a reply from different mail id. As a result, i am complaining about this fraud and please do take necessary action so that it cannot be repeated. The details of the bank that were shared with me were

Hi,

At the outset, we would like to clarify that the attached letter was not issued by IndiGo and also, the email ID mentioned does not belong to IndiGo.

On the same note, it is also pertinent to mention here that the Company does not indulge in the practices of collecting any processing/enrollment fees from job aspirants/candidates.

It is advisable for you to approach competent authorities for a parallel investigation into the matter against such unknown errant persons.
