[Resolved]  Shine.com — Report of cheat in the name of service

On 20/01/2024, at 03:30 p.m., I received a call ([protected]) from an agent Shivangi. She told me to pay a sum of ₹3327.71, and I will get a year's free service from Shine. I did accordingly.

But on the same date, at 6:00 p.m., I received another call from another agent([protected], this time a male agent who declared himself as my relationship manager), who told me to pay a one-time sum (he did not clarified the sum), so that I may get a better service from Shine.

At first he told me to pay ₹5192.00 and then ₹9556.00, and when I proceeded to pay, he told that I had to pay both simultaneously. I did accordingly and also sent him screenshots of the payment.
But then after confirming the payment he started describing me various kinds of things and again asked for a sum of ₹16000, and when I asked the need and reason to pay, he started arguing and misbehaving and I had to cut the call with a loss of ₹18075.71.

In conclusion, I would like to say that this kind of so-called 'service' is actually a kind of CHEATING Or FRAUD and I do not want such a 'service' from Shine. Please refund my money.

Respected Sirs,
Today, dated 23.01.2024, again I received a call from [protected] (this time again a male agent), who said that he will refund my money on the condition that I have to pay the GST and also asked for my account number. So in the name of GST he took 4 payments from me- ₹1626.00, ₹1626.00, ₹1925.00, ₹3600.00. I did accordingly.

But still after fulfilling the condition I did not got the refund and the agent cut the call saying that he will call later.

So please help and refund all my money as soon as possible.

With regards,
Tushar Kanti Sinha

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 regarding the refund. 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/

Regards,
Team Shine
