Sulekha.com — maid requirement through agency | |||||
I registered through sulekha for requirement of maid for cooking in chennai. Post registration, i got many calls from various agencies stating maids are readily available. One such agency is real home services and a fraud lady named shanti called from her mobile number [protected]. She accompanied one maid to my home and promised she will come from the next day. That agency lady got amount of 5000 from us as she stated that as per agreement maid salary should be given in advance to the agency. That fraud lady also stated they will send other maids if this maid is not coming regularly as per agreement. From the very next day, maid also did not come and her number was switched off. When we tried to contact this agency lady, she blocked my number later on. Complete fraud.. I have lost 5000. Apart from this, this lady seems to be fraud. Was this information helpful? | |||||

I had placed a request for maid services in Sulekha on 24.12.2018.
After registering got a call from a person called Priya who brought a maid and after convincing took advance of 2500 as 50 % advance .For the next day not picking up calls.
Her phone no is[protected].
agency name :Real Home services.
It is obviously fake as the address looks fake and the form also is fake and copy as in the previous complaints in Sulekha i found the same letterhead just now..The mistake is that i did not confirm or cross check the address and aadhar detaiils before payment.Looks like this is the modus operandi to collect phone numbers from sulekha and call on people and collect money.
i have attached the forms she gave me.I noticed today it is the same as the copied letterheads in some other complaints about sulekha complaints except name is changed on top.
Sulekha has the responsibility to send us the agencies numbers to which they are forwarding our phone numbers.This was not done and i did not receive any SMS toof agency numbers.Sulekha has to share the details to see if we can trace the culprits.The security of the customers is at stake as anybody, any criminal can get access to our address and phone number.Sulekha is accountable to release the numbers of the agencies whome they have shared our contact numbers.
People be careful with agencies contacting through SULEKHA.
