JustDial.com — 11800 rs Scammed in name of supplying Labours

I was contacted by the guy Named : Prasenjit Bera stating he got my number from JustDial.com and he owns a company named Prasenjit Labour Contractor.
He shared details about his company's working and Then shared me the labour's aadhar cards to convince me and I did get convinced out of this.

I suggested I will hand them their tickets and will now pay anything upfront. But due to circumstances I was unable to get their tickets as there were waiting lists and i had no other option.
This guy Prasenjit said he will make their tickets and I should transfer the amount to him ticket was just 740 per head but I paid 1000rs per head for their tickets. Total payment handed till now 4000rs
He called me from station saying the ticket is expensive and it is 2200 per person and how it is a tatkal ticket. I agreed and immediately paid him 4800 more
Total money handed till now was 8800rs.
Starting this I had a different uncomforting feeling then I got one more call from him. This time saying the amount got stuck in ATM, I said I am not paying a rupee more at this point and he should handle it and not call me untill the men are on their way to here.
He requested me to talk to the guy sitting at ticket counter. The guy made it sound like he is ticket officer or something.
I told him to manage the amount from his friends... He then called me after awhile saying he managed to get 2000 out of 5000 . I agreed to pay another 3000
Total amount paid till now was 11800rs
Starting this I googled his name and came across a similar named guy scaming with similar tactics, only that time they called the guy next day and said they lost their tickets.
and today on 04/02/2022 I received call from same number, only this time it was a labour on call saying they lost their ticket and got caught by cops and I should pay them some amount. I immediately asked the guy to stop acting and stop the background train noises and return me my money.
This was all a setup all this time just to scam people out of their money.
JustDial checks no credentials and is handing out our Name and Numbers to scammers like this and us, normal people have to pay for it.
These Guys are really professional at acting. they will share their aadhar cards, pay background music like railway station announcements and train noises just to make you believe they are actually at station or in a train.
