Quikr — 200 image to word typing job - work from home during corona time.

Recently i applied for a work from home job in quikr. The job was to type 200 images to ms word in 25 days with more than 70% accuracy. After this, one person named david contacts me on whatsapp and gives me two links (https://qrco.de/bbb8h8, https://qrco.de/bbb8vd) containing 100images each to type. Then i received an sms from vk-projob like this: "if you are working with 200 images project, please share this code 2xmlnht20, if you are working on 500 images work, share this code 5htmlp20 with your agent only on whatsapp. Share this code to activate your product key. Code expires in 24 hours. Send code only in whatsapp text message. Send correct code. If not your account get blocked". As it said i gave the code to david and he said my account was activated. Again i received another message from vk-projob that they will share the mail id to send completed file on 24th day. As they said i received this email: [protected]@gmail.com. I sent the file to them and informed agent david. Then again i received another sms from their company (Vk-projob or vm-projob) that i have to wait 2 or 3 days for the accuracy report to come and payment amount is decided. After some days i receive accuracy report from vk-projob that my work is accepted with 93.33% accuracy and i will receive an ivr call and i have to share the code i get from the call to the agent. As it said i waited for the call but nothing came. So i contacted the agent david but no response is there. Then i get this sms from their company:"contact your agent on this number [protected] & save the number for further info. Just whatsapp the code, our agent will activate your payment account. If you mismatch the code, you need to wait for 15 days. Thank you". I contacted the person. Her name as i got from truecaller is gayathri. She is another agent. When i contacted her she said i will have to pay 675 rupees to get the code again through sms and activate payment account. I paid her and the details of the transaction are in the attached image. After this i receive sms from company that payment account is activated and salary 59660 rupees will be credited in one week to new paypal business account they create for me. They said the username and password for the paypal account will be provided soon. As i was waiting, i got another sms from company that they have tried to add salary to my account but failed to do so as there is no minimum balance and i have to contact agent for further help. So i contacted agent gayathri who now say that i have to maintain minimum balance of 1563 rupees to get the salary. She says i have to pay to her paytm upi. At this time i have some doubt as paypal never requires any minimum balance to operate. Already she got 675 rupees from me. Now when i try to contact neither of the two agents respond.

All of the process look very systematic but they are running a well organised online scam.

Hi all, still the *scam* is going rampantly under different names... Here is new sms pattern:

Click on this links

https://qrco.de/bbwWTR
https://qrco.de/bbwWUH
Download & save all images in your laptop/ mobile. Type JPEG to word, finish all images & send all in 15 days to our email id.
Click on the links and download all the images and start typing
After typing 2pages send me sample

Looks like Quickr is just *blind* on complaints and more *loves* fooling ppl by printing nd promoting these Ads...!!

Yes .But the goods news is that I reported their scam work link to the website support team and got their account deleted so that further people can't be a victim of this scam. Now the two work links are unavailable.

This is what exactly happpend to me now, . These ppl are fake ... but the thing is i didnt pay any amount. Thank god...
same way as this complaint cheated me by different Agent name (Naveena & Sravan Kumar).I have registered a complaint in Cybercrime.gov.in.

Be aware of this Dogs.

I have received call from Data Entry company named as " Data Solutions" Chennai and daily I have interacted with person "Naveena" and her Mobile number is - +91-[protected].

I have received the first project of 200 PDF files to convert into word documents and completed on time and submitted.
After a couple of days I received a call that said " Your project accuracy is 93.33% and you will get a salary of 59666/- INR.

After that I contacted Naveena and she told me to pay some nominal fee which is company policy.So, I have paid the amount online from my PayTM to the below mentioned UPI ID's.

1st Payment : [protected]@paytm, Laxmidevi, Amount - 694.00
2nd Payment - [protected]@paytm, Laxmidevi, Amount - 1568.00
3rd Payment - [protected]@kotak, Sravan Kumar, Amount - 8168.00

4th payment - [protected]@kotak, Sravan Kumar, Amount 1566.00 but I have not paid and I requested Naveena that I don't have money please give my salary but she disconnected my call and not answering and mobiles switched off from 11-Aug-2020.

During this pandemic situation I am struggling to run my family and in these worst situations I was cheated by Naveena and P Sravan Kumar.

Please help me.

Thank you.

I also got cheated as same as this.. but sms address was AD-JBWRK. For my luck I don't paid any cash to them.. But my valuable time and energy got wasted. I think quikr is not taking necessary actions against them.. they have to take decisions so as to punish them by law...
Hello,
I have also gone with Fake/scam people, who make people work for hours and also fake people money.

So Here's what I did, I went to the bank (also police station), Asked police to sign a complaint to file in the bank to which I transferred the money.

So I suggest people try this step to take action on the people who fake our money...
