Try going to the police as a last resort if you have proof. Else, consider it as an expensive lesson on friendship and delete his

Yes bro i learnt a big lesson. Hope so I get it or else I have to go to police station.

Unethical tip but go to your nearest police station. Offer them 10% recovery charge. And ask them to pay a visit to the person. Tried and tested. Works better than hiring goons.

What was the mode of transfer ? Hoping it to be an online transaction . Is it documented in some way ?  Send a legal notice.  This works most of the times.

Maybe try to get that in emi, 5k/10k per month, you will hardly get the whole in one go, I guess

I learnt my lesson wheen I gave 20 rupees to one tuchiya....

Contact their Parents nd Family. 
 Somebody owed me a similar amount, I went outside their house and called them on the phone and told them either you pay up in 24 hrs or I’m coming back with a speaker and protesting outside your house. Got half in the next one hour nd the rest within a week.

Kidnap him and demand 1 lakh from his family, while sending him back to home give him 10k and shut his mouth. Risk maybe involved in the process but Money is money 💰 bro

Welcome to Gadgets & Apps's Private Community

Few weeks watched a reel from a famous influencer about this app where he shared the benefits one can gain from it and i did download the app and tried to open it and yet the app didn’t open even after my multiple tries so I uninstalled the app. 

Today, i did try to install it once again as i had to do my mobile phone recharge. 
I added the money to the wallet (3k) and then went on to do the recharge.
My recharge wasn’t successful and yet the money got deducted from the wallet. 
I have lost my 3k.

I did complain about it and still there is no response from their end. 
I even tried to call the helpline number and yet no response. 

Can anyone help me what to do now in such cases?
Can i get my hard earned money back?

Please share your knowledge and help me with it.

I have lately realised that many people have fallen for this scam and have lost their money. 

I don’t know how come PlayStore still allow such apps to run such scams.

My mother called me yesterday and tells me she got scammed for about 10 lakhs and needs money by Monday. She has 4 lakhs and I will have to cover the rest. Turns out she let a friend take a loan in her name and this friend gave fake jewellery as collateral. The friend took loans under her husband’s name and my mom’s name, she divorced the dude and escaped. The bank called my mom and has asked her to pay, now they’re filing a case against my mom for fraud.

I’ve spent my weekend talking to advocates and friends, and looks like the only way to get out of it unscathed is to cut a deal with the bank saying we’ll pay the money back and they don’t press charges in return. Contesting the bank is going to take time, money and the risk of my mom losing her job.

As an older daughter who grew up in a broken family, I’ve spent my childhood and adulthood protecting my mother and sibling. I finally landed a well paying job 2 years ago and now the responsibility extended to providing for my younger sister and my mother financially which I’m more than happy to do. I’ve worked hard the past few months to save what I have right now beyond what I give my family, use to sustain myself and finally felt happy about the position I’m in.

Now I’m heartbroken. I’m going to be emptying almost 70% of what I have so far for this for paying the bank and the lawyer. Especially for something that’s not even my mistake and something that could have been easily avoided. I’m not in a place to direct my anger at her, I know it’s a hard time for her as well. 


6 to 7 lakhs might sound like a small amount to some but I don’t have the privilege to throw money like that. I don’t have fuck you money. I don’t take money from friends. I’m 25 and literally just started my life 2 years ago after working for peanuts. 

What’s even the point of working hard, leading an honest life if this is how it works? It’s just truly unfair and I don’t know how to deal with it.

I wish life was a little easier and I just need to vent

Me too venting in this space.. 
 //Start if rant 
  
 My father too was frauded by a builder whom we had entrusted building flats on our plot of land. Fcker took booking amount from multiple people and left construction, claimants now coming after us saying its our responsibility to refund even though my father didnot recive any amount. 
 I had to take 18 lakhs loan for my father to complete construction and am all the time calling advocates in assesing risk from claimants who come barging at our home and building site with threats of filling FIR. 
 Every month my one third salary goes in Loan amount, had got a ideal wlb good paying job 2 years back after battling unemployment and low pay for many years. 
 Had planned to take wife and kids on vactaions for making up for lost time but now struggling to fulfill basic needs for family, forgot about vacations. 
 Have taken risk and moonlighting but it becomes hell on days when there is clash between jobs and sometimes lash out on my kids and wife and parents and then get hit by double guilt of not being strong enough.  
 Dont have any backing to face cheat builder who has backing of police and politicians, claimants coming after us as they have recognized us as soft target. 
 Preparing for 10 lakhs more expenses in multi year litigation trying to probe my fathers innocence. 
 Fcking jealous relatives enjoying all this from distance. 
 Fck this world.

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

So I’ve been working as a Backend Software Engineer. Recently, my manager left the company and I’ve been assigned a new manager. Not to boast but I’m decent at my job and able to find better solutions than my peers, my old manager ignited this passion for problem solving in me. This new manager is really toxic he pass comments on my colleagues (Same level as me) you have short term memory loss, badam khaya kro and shit! He’s always chasing girls in office. There is one girl in my team he acts like a different person in front of her (although she treats him really bad because she thinks he’s a creep). So a few days back, I was working on something with some other manager who knew the context to the problem (there is an internal npm package my company has which only few developers have contributed to, I recently made my contribution to that package) and this new manager has never made any contribution to that package so he started telling the other manager that this guy(Says my name) is very slow and the other managers defends me instantly saying he’s the fastest in the team. I’m really pissed tho.

I want to do something about this guy. He has been doing such things for past month and always tells the sob story of how much he has struggled in life.

Need suggestions on how to tackle this?

PS: I’ve asked my parents if I can resign they are fine with it but I don’t want to resign in this bad market without an offer

I am a IT employee and have lots of debts, can any one please help me with 65 lakhs, I will return in 1 year with interest. Please some one help me out. It's my life and death situation.

Human Resources

So I joined a company through a referral. The referral is from a good friend that I trust. After joining the company, there were issues like a laptop taking time to get delivered etc. 

After 2-3 weeks, my RM, the CEO started showing the true colors. He started accusing me of cheating during the interview assignment. Said, I should work on my personal laptop (I don't have any) and when I told him that I don't have it, he just simply mocked me for it.

The issue is, he is not giving me a salary now. I have been connected with him and HR and all they are doing is making this in me. There is no official notice on salary delay or anything. What should I do? I am a bread earner and my family depends on me. Please help. How should I proceed about it

This is a genuine question. Recently my close friend got scammed on telegram and now the other person has blocked him and there is no way to contact him. Is there a way to get your money back as I have heard that there is a way where you report it online and get a refund. Is this true? Does cyber crime or NPCI really refund the money back?
If so how much time does it take.
Thank you :)

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

Hi I have dedicated 3 years of my life working day night to build a brand in ecommerce segment, from product sourcing to selling, finance reconciliation and cashflow management. I am getting 10% of profits after all expenses plus have 3% equity [to be offered soon]. But my pay is not more than 1 lakh per month and I don't think I will be able sell equity anytime soon because my partner is a very rigid guy and nobody seems interested in investing in us. For past 1.5 years he has become sluggish as we are earning 6-7 lakhs and has drinking problems, all the major task are done by me and i dont have support to hire right kind of people as we are bootstarpped and everything is expected from me. I can take leave whenever i want but i am expected to work on sat sun too.

Now i have been offered 1.5 lakh per month plus incentive for similar role in an new brand as Brand Head of established and funded ecommerce company. They have funds for growth and a team for expansion.
Company COO belives in me and is offering this role, he knows his current team is foolish, lacks enthusiasm and slow to execute.
Sat-sun off
Problems
1. 3.5Lakh is pending to be paid to me from current firm. How should i approach to get that money?
2. How to convince my partner who is an industry veteran and my mentor that i want to leave?
3. Anything I should be confirm from latter company before quiting in previous firm.

 What should i do?

Should I give up equity and brand owner tag for high paying job?

Hi I am trying to see further options of transferring credit card to bank accounts. All limits exhausted in various third party apps I tried. Any more suggestions as creditors are rejecting my new loans. Only option left for me to access funds is credit card to bank account with less transaction fees.

Hey guys, need your guidance on how to handle this

2016- My brother started a powder coating business which become flop by 2020 because of poor planning and spending the loan cash for his personal expenses which made us fall into a debt of INR 35 lakhs. 

So we sold a land near our home and cleared all the debts

had some decent amount left along with it I took a home loan to renovate my home and we completed marriage for my brother also. 

Everything completed, My brother started to work in a Automation company and he earns INR 20k/m which is a decent salary in cbe

2024- He is again into debt of INR 5L (Online app loans, home credit, loan from friend, cc) because of his poor management,,Currently his salary is 25k. 

Thinking of his wife and kid, I sold some shares which was worth 1L and closed all the online loans, Even though that is done he still pays 14k EMI, balance which is not sufficient to run the family.

Now he’s asking me to help close other loans. I’m already paying home loan and if I take his debt to that will be huge burden for me.

I have some saving of 4L which I saved it for my marriage because no land left to sell and spend for my marriage.
 

Should I need to give him so he can close all the debts or how should I deal this?

Thanks for reading, I appreciate if you can guide me how to deal this

How to recover Online fianicial fraud

I'm starting a new company and am assembling a team, in all my previous startups had like 7 people working but now everyone is settled and few have retired coz made too much from the exits so back to assembling a new team :p

As in all my previous startups I paid an average of 40Lpa an 2-3% ESOPs to all the early team they made insane wealth. But now I'm thinking of going lower and meet the realities of the market rather than paying higher why not paying the market rate?

I have been taking multiple interviews and experienced this people consider higher salaries to be a lie they want to earn dirt-cheap salaries and don't trust themselves with what they deserve and in the end ended up mocking me. One of the senior people that I interviewed thought 3lakhs per month was very high no-one pays that much. Same goes for an intern who I decided to pay 1lakh per month thought it's not possible and ghosted me thinking I'm scamming him ( his job was to meet high profile people make connection with different founders by going to parties and events regularly )!

My new startup is not in crypto but in something unique!

What do you'll think should I pay people less as that's what they think they deserve?

I worked hard to get home loan and paying it on time but had a few important things to do and due to that I had a debt of few lakhs ! Now in a bad situation though if I get time I will be able to repay all of them. Lenders are not ready to give time. Any genuine advice which can help me to get few months of time so that I can repay one by one ! 

Note: situation of my cousin who stay in kolkata with family and work in one of the MNC. Personally I helped him with some money though debt is high so seeking some advice for him to get some time to repay. Thanks !
