**News Flash:** Hi everyone, there is a new WhatsApp stock market scam happening right now. It starts with a random person messaging you, usually with a woman's profile picture, offering free stock market tips. If you agree, they send you a link to join a group. In the group, they conduct two live broadcasts daily, one in the afternoon and one in the evening. They pay you to watch these broadcasts continuously for three days, along with some data pack recharges. Initially, the broadcasts appear professional, discussing market indices and suggesting stocks. After about a week, they start promoting a "700% wealth surge plan" on your initial investment. They claim that the consulting services you're currently enjoying are worth Rs 50,000 for this quarter. If the 700% gain is achieved, you must pay consulting fees and revenue sharing for two quarters. The fees depend on the information service you choose for the next quarter. If the 700% profit is not achieved, no fees are charged, and future cooperation allows you to choose your desired service level freely. The stocks they suggest also surge, and people in the group keep posting their profits and praising the "professor" named Hardik. When it comes to the 700% surge plan, they introduce a twist: they ask you to download an app or visit a website to sign up with your Aadhar number. They claim this "Preferred Asset Account" has several advantages: 1. It allows for pre-market trading. 2. It has priority trading rights when purchasing Upper Circuit stocks. 3. The success rate of subscribing to IPOs is higher compared to a regular Demat account. Believing it to be genuine, you might add your money. Initially, you make good profits, but soon you realize you can't withdraw your money, and eventually, you are blocked by everyone. The company behind this scam is IEF (International Equity Funds), operated by Meera Patel, Hardik Shah, and Ami Shah from the USA. If you Google them, you won't find any legitimate information. There are also multiple company names associated with this scam, according to my research. Be aware and never fall for these scams with unrealistic profits. Always use trading apps approved by the government, do your research, and be mindful.

Hiya folks from Pagarbook, Received an email from someone here about some shit going down at Pagarbook. Looking to dig into this. I’m a reporter and maintain confidentiality. Please drop me an email on [email protected] if you’re from Pagarbook and have any information. Thanks!

Just wanted to bring it out so that every one aware. Naukari.com executive calling and saying pay amount which is to unknown person and if you are not selected then money will be refunded in 24 hours. They are also sharing JDs with QR payment I have all the screen shots.

This post shudnt be under LinkedIn cringe but I felt no other category fits. Just to spread the awareness about another EdTech scam.

I am seeing a lot of growthschool ads lately about two courses. Linkedin and marketing using ai, has anyone paid 299 for this and can walk us through what are the things covered exactly. I don't mind paying the amount but is this worth it.

I saw opening in linkedin, emailed the Hr. They called and said they have a opening for an unpaid internship. They said they will give assignment, and i have to pay 1000 as certification fee, and they they will refer me for paying jobs.

Look, how Nowadays people using AI bots.

So, I am looking for senior level jobs and usually referall /direct connects have worked better. But today I had to upload my resume on shine.com 'cuz the opening on linkedin, redirected me there. Within an hour I got a call from an agency called evolution planner and what seemed like a young boy in an animated voice asking if am looking out etc. What spiked my curiosity was him asking if am looking outside India, which is not usual opening question. Now its usual for consultants to call so it was sll okay till he said there will be a small fees. Now again, I know of senior folks who deploy headhunters and I was like maybe these people have got my profile from somewhere and are looking to source business from me. I wouldn't have paid but I entertained to see where this is going. He said Microsoft, Oracle etc have shortlisted me. Funny given I have worked in startups in marketing ( and not even tech ) so don't knw whats the skillset match. Anyway he told me to create an account and my final red flag was when he said site name like www Dot..lol who says it like that. I cut the call pretending am getting another call and he can call me later. He asked me to confirm since he will have to hold the client for me. Lol It's happened with me for the 1st time and unfortunately searching this company name doesn't throw any negative reviews either. But this is a scam,right ? Also since when did google start recruiting like this. Have you heard of this company? Also have you had such experiences.?
