Shine.com — Complaint about frudenlent job offer

I created an account on Shine.com in my name Manjunath to explore better job opportunities, but unfortunately, the experience has been disappointing. Your team charged me ₹39, 317/- in the name of job assistance and career improvement Services I was contacted by your team to subscribe to paid services. I was hesitant at first, but when I was informed that the fee would be ₹3, 657, I agreed to proceed with the payment. Your team assured me that I would be assigned a relationship manager who would help me find a job in my domain, which made me excited about the prospect of securing my dream job.
However, after Mr. Abhimanayu from Bangalore from your team took over, things took an unexpected turn. He aggressively pushed me to purchase additional paid services to enhance my profile for recruiters. When I asked for the exact amount, he assured me that the charges were minimal, leading me to believe that the cost would be manageable, similar to the ₹3, 657 I initially paid. However, he then sent me three proforma invoices for Shine's exclusive services, which were far beyond what I could afford.
Despite clearly stating that I could not afford the additional fees, Mr. Abhimanayu continued to pressure me, behaving as though I had taken a loan from him and was defaulting on payments. This kind of treatment is unacceptable, especially from a reputable company like Shine.com (HT Media).
I was assured chances of getting job offer is 94%, from the second day of payment, I will start getting calls from the recruiters. He assured that for my experience I get at least 24 lakhs CTC. I did not get even a single call. It is all bogus, only looting money. Full of lies.
