SCAM ALERT

 BEWARE OF ONLINE RECRUITERS

Every morning, while reading the newspaper, we see a lot of online scams and cyber crimes, but I never had any personal experience until two months ago. This incident gave me an experience that changed the way I saw humans. Today, our society has been devastated by many factors, one of which is those kinds of people who make money by cheating.


Two months before, I saw an ad in OLX regarding a job as medical representatives in a medicinal firm, then inquired for details. Soon a man called and explained the requirements, he asked to send photos of ID proof and certificates. I sent them and told my friend about this job void and gave him his contact number. Then this guy called and said that they selected us for the post and that we had to reach out there immediately. After a while, he called back and informed us of the COVID-19 test that must be taken before joining the job. He added that the company planned for a large COVID-19 test in the firm at the stage of enrollment, so we should pay off the money for the tests which will be refunded after a week. The unemployment situation forced us to pay off the cash that becomes the great mistake I have ever made.


 After the transaction, he again contacts us to informed us about two more vacancies at the company. This time we gave the number to our other friends and two of them contacted and he asked them same requirements, to join with us. On the day of joining, we reached the location provided by him, But there is no such company as he mentioned. When realizing the scam, we gave a complaint to the Police. But they said it's hard to find the culprit in such online scams. The next day with the bank account number we find his address with the help of the Bank Manager and informed Police. The Cyber department tracks him down with the details.

It was a desperate experience in my life. This happened because of our carelessness, we should change our attitude towards society. Nowadays humanity is hard to find. Don't trust anyone unless you well know him. Hope you guys find some lessons from my experience. See you with another experience
