[Resolved]  Bagit Today - India Today Group — Fraud by Bagit today - india Today Group

Sir,

I am santhakumar.

On the 23rd November, 2012, I was called by one Mr Sachin [protected] (claiming to be the manager) of india today group - bag it today, who had informed me that I am one among 10 people all across country, chosen lot by India Today Group - Bag it Today for the gift of laptop Dell inspiron -15 r and a Mobile phone - Black Berry 9900. This was under the condition that I place two orders in booking of affordable holidays 4 nights & 5 days under scheme of arrangement by making a payment of rs 5998/- Each for the two orders, totaling to an amount of rs 11,996/-. I, as per the instruction of mr sachin swiped my credit card and booked under order ID [protected] & [protected].

On the 26th november, I was called by Sachin at about 10.25 am who had connected the call to the gift department to one ms Siphali (name as I could make it out over mobile) who had confirmed that the gifts would be dispatched within 15 days time after warranty formalities are completed for the gifts. Thereafter there were several calls I made in this regard as there was no mailer, wherein I was assured of the gifts.

On 17th december, 2012 by about 12,20 pm I contacted Mr sachin at +91 [protected] who had assured to get back around 5.00 pm that evening and further informed that the gifts have been processed for delivery which will be confirmed in the evening by his call. So far I have not received any confirmation on the said assured gifts.

I never had any iota of suspicion as the call was from an authenticated group none less than india today. Now my calls to people in the group are being cold shouldered which sets me to a position that I have been set under a trap of deception, fraud, financial loss.

Now I want my hard earned money to be back.

I realise after doing some research through the net that several thousand of individuals like me have been victimised in similar manner. The victims of this systematic fraud will have to escalate this for remedial action to agencies like state police / CBI / Economic offences wing / Finance ministry / Registrar of companies / Media / Etc., As several crores of monies are involved.
