Shine.com — Fraud - Money collected posing as Shine Reference Team for Job reference

G gkyogeesha from Bengaluru, Karnataka Apr 12, 2022 Jul 14, 2022 This thread was updated on Jul 14, 2022

Hi, Today I have updated my profile on Shine.com Immediately after 10~20 minutes someone called from mobile no:+91 [protected] posing as Shine Team. They have mentioned that Shine is directly tied with some recruiters and refers candidates to such companies and service charges will be collected from such companies only. But, it is necessary to create a reference ID, they said. So, for creating a reference ID a Rs.10 package to be purchased on "Shinereference.com". When I logged into ShineRefence.com in it prompted me to update personal data and to pay Rs.10 to buy reference package. But an amount of Rs.10, 100 deducted from the account as it was on OTP direct update setting. How come such fraudsters get access to Shine profile details ? Please look into this, resolve and arrange to pay back the deducted amount of Rs.10, 100 Screenshots attached for reference. +3 photos Was this information helpful? No (0) Yes (3)
