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 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.

Welcome to Indian Startups's Private Community

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?

To refund money from Phone Pe for a wrong transaction, you should immediately contact Phone Pe's customer support: 8637-842-811 . -and (available 24/7) report the issue.

How do I get my money back from a wrong transaction on Phone Pe?

Hi,
Today I got a message on telegram that if I complete tasks I  can earn around 3000-4000 Rs everyday.
I signed up for their service by providing FAKE details. Once  I signed up on the platform. I got around 1079.8 Rs as bonus.
I withdrew that amount into my bank account (FAKE Name was given here as well).

After that those people kept asking me to add 10,000 Rs into platform to proceed with next earnings. I rejected that since I knew that these are fraudsters and one you add that amount they never return the money (first time they pay 1079.9 Rs to win the trust) but later they don’t.

Just to make everyone aware that get your first time money and never send any money on such platform claiming huge income everyday.

Thanks

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

I was reading news continuously for half an hr and keep on clicking on news headline. 

I reached to a page where it says, an Infosys founder explaining how they have built an Algo trading platform which will make you rich. From the 1st look, I thought it could be real but NO. 

This is what I understood ↙️

Business model: Investor add approx 20k and platform will start an automated trading in Crypto, taking mostly the winning deals so that capital increases everyday. 

To find the reality, I registered and got a call where executive explaining how Mukesh Ambani has announced this platform. MUKESH AMBANI? This was the 1st hint of a scam. 

Then she asked to screen share for helping me to put money. I was like call me in 1 hr, in the meantime I tried to report this on cybercrime site. 

This is what I found in the news later on https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/narayana-murthy-warns-about-deepfake-video-of-him-endorsing-trading-apps/article67641003.ece/amp/

What is even happening. Scamster is back

For those who aren’t aware - this guy was faking his education credentials (he was using my Alma mater in his LinkedIn and Twitter bio).  
  
 He used to charge obnoxious amount for career counseling on Topmate. Was featured on some economic news channel as well during last year’s budget.  
  
 In Sep 2023, he was exposed by a fellow Twitterati. That he hasn’t even completed graduation, let alone a Post Grad.  
  
 Most of his tweets were copy paste from other sources, his gyaan was generic.  
  
 The guy went AWOL from Twitter.  
  
 He returned back in January of this year, posted a thread and a video but never even acknowledged his mistake or apologized for his misdemeanors.  
  
 And imagine such fake people are being nominated for events like these.  
  
 Since, I wasn’t personally defrauded hence I cannot file a police complaint but I’m trying to connect with people who were duped off their money so that this fraudster does face Justice.  
  
 PS - Yes, he’s certainly on his way to becoming an MLA or MP pretty soon.

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. 
  
 //End of rant

I was in Mumbai this weekend and I was having street food in Ghatkopar. I heard someone whispering but ignored. When I turned around I saw three people, 2 guys and 1 girl. I continued enjoying my food when I saw that the girl behind me had left and dropped some money. I walked up to her and told her about it.

I bent down to pick it up when the other two guys bumped into me. I think they were cloning my card all this while, I will explain why I think that. I asked them if something was wrong and they said No and went away. 

I checked today morning and 16,731 were deducted at some weird merchant in USA. I was confused, so I instantly blocked all my cards. I have contacted the bank about this fraud as well. 

I am confused: I did not do any transaction on any website that looked shady nor did I give my details out to anyone. The only thing that explains this is that they cloned my credit card and this was their strategy. How to comfirm this? Please help.

Someone cloned my Credit Card near Ghatkopar🤬

I was recently approached by two companies named Shreya marketing and Thanvitha ayurvedic, they both have pitched this investment scheme that it would give me a return of 12% or something. They specified that they have 1500 acres and have turn over of 1000s of crores.
But don't know what their business is.
Here is the link: https://www.shreyainframkt.com/
Comment if you have been approached by them or any sort of this people.
