[Resolved]  Naukri.com — Fraudulent calls and lost 17000 Rs.

I registered online for certain job positions and also registered at Naukri.com and various other sites. In the month of January I received a call from a person named Mahesh who said he was from Naukri.com and can arrange an on call interview with companies such as HCL and Infosys. However he kept demanding a certain amount of money and the amount kept increasing for each and every step of the process and eventually he said that the confirmation of HCL company was guaranteed and all that was left to do was pay 7500 amount. Later I got a call from HCL and said that health insurance fee was 10, 000 and I had to pay it or I wouldn't be considered a candidate. After the payment another the same person called and said that initiation fee of around 18000 was required and I refused.
I kept calling all the numbers and contacting them through various other numbers but they won't refund the money. I texted them several times and all they said was it cannot happen at the moment since Covid situation is on the rise. Now it is May and I called them through another number and the same man picked up the phone and said that he doesn't know any Mahesh and later when I called again they said that Mahesh was their brother. They also said that they have purchased the sim couple of days ago.
