[Resolved]  Shine.com — Fraud /scam job offers

Today (08/01/2023) morning, I registered on Shine job portal. In the afternoon, a person named Siddharth called me from‪ +[protected]‬ and asked me to register with ₹1400, assuring me that he would place me in MNCs like IQVIA, COGNIZANT, and OMEGA. They promised an offer in IQVIA, and I had an interview where I was asked to pay nearly ₹23490. They assured me that this amount would be refunded by 7 pm today.

After that, I was connected to another woman named Anjali. She stated that she would refund the amount but demanded an extra ₹11275 as GST. She assured me that she would send the entire amount back. However, she later tried to scam me into paying additional money. I refused to pay the extra amount, leading to an argument where she threatened not to refund my money if I didn't comply. Both Siddharth and Anjali refused to refund my money. It was then that I realized I had fallen victim to a fraud.I lost my money, please be aware.

Dear Sir,

Many unethical people take advantage of the brand and run scams/frauds misrepresenting Shine. We have been receiving such complaints from some customers/general public who have become victims of such fraudulent and cheating activities at the hands of many criminal elements.

This is to bring your kind notice that the details do not belong to shine learning. Like, these days a lot of fake recruiters are calling the candidates using the name of reputed job portals and extract heavy money from them. Shine.com is not responsible for and expressly disclaims all liability for any such communication via email, SMS or phone call by a frivolous source claiming to have got the contact details of the concerned person through or representing Shine.com.Therefore jobs seekers are advised not to indulge in any monetary engagement with such sources in the name of guaranteed interviews with employers or refund as we do not have any refund policy https://learning.shine.com/tnc. We advertise this in our own newspaper Hindustan Times.

Request you to please do not share your debit or credit card details with anyone. Please go through the disclaimer on our website: https://www.shine.com/myshine/disclaimer/
