Pratham Foundation — It is a fake NGO to whom I paid money for donation

Address:New Delhi, Delhi, 110053
Website:www.prathamfoundation.org

Today I got a call from a person named Nipun jain from pratham foundation with phone number [protected]. He was saying that a girl named shanya is injured severely and they need a donation. So I donated 2500 rs immediately and later I found that this is a fake organisation. Thier website is www.Prathamfoundation.org. He spoke to me for atleast 30 minutes that I got brainwashed and donated the money. He has shown me some certificated and government registration number. So I believed him and donated the money. Please don the needful

That person keep on messaging me and posting the pics. Initially she posted the burned skin pics. Later I called to the hospital and enquired. Patient is real, but doctor said that emergency treatment was done and he said he may require expense help for future. He also said now it's not an emergency to push for donation. I can do later too. But the trust person keep on messaging me that it's very urgent. Once I said about my conversation to hospital then she posted the treated patient pics. Here I kept asking how she got my number, she I initially blabbered and later she omitted that question and kept putting sentimental statements alone. I said doctor told it's not urgent now and why you are putting pressure now and I asked from whom she got my number. She didn't answer for this, instead she keeps putting sentimental statements only.
Hello Shalini

How did you found that its fake organizations??
is it a fake organization? Ohh no, just now I got a call from Manish Kumar volunteer & stating about critical condition for immediate surgery of a 3 yr old baby.
Yes, government registration is not a big deal. Many units get registered under this banner & we all know the transparency of government dept. of our country.
But, don't know whether this foundation is fake cheating or genuine one. Hope they are not group of negativity.
i too received a call but dont know whether that is original or fake

receive number [protected]
Is it really fake foundation? Please reply. I am about to donate money.
Hi Friends..
It is a fake website and fake organisation..
Don't donate any founds.
Please check below four images in that first images tells about organisation starts in the year 2014.
second images pan number and third image e filling pan numbers are different.
In that fourth image It shows, It is not a registered company because I tried in Government website, but I am unable to find the "Pratham Foundation" details.
So My dear friends Don't trust this company. If still you want to donate, please check with your Delhi friends.

Thank you
M.Pavan Kumar

Just now I got a call and she sent below msg. I am getting these kind of calls frequently. Cudnt differentiate the fake and original. Most of the calls are from ladies and they speak that they are begging us for help. DNT know whether it's acting or real. I asked her how u got my number. She said someone donated and refered my name. I asked who it is. She didn't tell that.

I to have got call from [protected] fake call (baby burn case) and want 2 lacs.
Pratham is a registered NGO but they clearly malpractice with it. Never give money to such an organisation. I have interacted with many of the pratham 'victims'. Please stay away from them.
Even I got call from Pratham Foundation with this number [protected]. What all the people above mentioned same he said to me about a burn baby case and requested for huge donation. He literally pulled me till the transaction gateway page and somehow forced me to donate money. But i refused and said him to call later. For sure they are a Fraud organisation. Please consult and verify before donating valuable money.

Thanks Guys.
This NGO belongs to the same owner Angelo K Anto of the NGO Motherconcern, which is also fake! beware when they call ask them to conference call with the hospital or you tell i will conference the call with the hospital that they mention they will deny that they dont have the number, It happened to me.
Pratham foundation is not the fake ngo
Today i got a call from this ngo and they told me a case about ankit and further i check all the details and verify the case in the hospital. Doctor verify the case of ankit and told me for my support.
So finally i will want to support this ngo for the child ankit.
Overall this is not fake
Got a call from [protected]. The PAN Number which they quote is of a different NGO(http://www.pratham.org/) with same name.
. Please do not donate money. If you are so keen to help fellow beings, visit a nearby orphanage/ old age home. Sponsor a day's food and spend a day with the inmates :)
Please check personally the patient if possible then do donation after verifying. On phone you can't verify everything. you can't verify doctor also whether he is really a doctor or their member.
I also got a same call for the baby name Sandhya for burning case and getting treatment at Patna Hospital. Later on she messaged me the same. Then I googled about foundation called Pratham and find out its fake. Because they are calling for the same baby from April 2017 onwards for the same issue and i received call on 19/06/2017 for the same burning problem.
So don't believe such kind of organization. And donate at nearby needy foundation in your city where you can go and check the patient physically.
Yes, Even I am getting calls from this company from various phone numbers one of them is [protected]. They first begged me for help and I old them I will check and let them know in sometime, Because they sat on my head and compelled me to donate, I think that was my mistake because when I refused they started sending abusing messages and after some days called me from another number I could easily hear people laughing at the back now they are irritating me often. I dono how we can make such things stop.Pathetic, such experiences make you regret when you thing of helping some one.
Even I recieved a call today from Pratham foundation Person name Pravinder Singh from delhi Contact details - [protected], [protected], he said there is a small girl burned name Sandhya she is in need of 2, 50, 000 left amont. He sent me a mesg to with registration details Url address http:/www.prathamfoundation.org and help at www.prathamfoundation.org/payu.php. I don't know how far it true. I asked him from where you got my number he said your friends must have referred your number which was there in the record which record I aksed he just changed the topic. Fake organisation bluffing people for money.
Sounds funny, but me too got couple call today from Pratham foundation, first a guy named suneel jhisani and then from a lady who demanded that I donate money to a burn case baby in Delhi. First they spoke to my hubby.. and said that it is critical and asked for money.. he asked to forward the details and we will check..we received the similar message as confirmed in the above comments.. Thank GOD.. I was almost ready to transfer funds. The sad part is because of some fake ones, the real ones gets deprived.. :(
Oh my world. Even I was about to donate. So now I am planning to take initiative to raise a complaint against them. I am sure that I will get a call from them. I am going to record the call and share it through all possible ways.
Its totally fake, same burn case again told by one female volunteer and asking for 56000 amount for donation urgently before 12:00 12th July 2017, got call today 12th july itself. She provided a website address of foundation but i checked & found its a fake website created by Ganesh, Address mentioned during registration is Bhajanpura.
Please refer link https://www.whois.com/whois/prathamfoundation.org of owner & registration details of website: www.prathamfoundation.org
Today I received call from [protected]. Volunteer introduced himself that he is from Pratham foundation and started explaining. I have disconnected call twice then I received a message almost threatening :)

Thank you so much for hang up the call, it shows that what kind of person you are who dont want this child alive thank you so much but dont forget if you play with poors one day you get a revert where u realize what you are doing wrong with other people when someone lost who is near ur heart because of your fake hope.

Cant we do anything??
