On May 11th i was contacted by one Ms Deepthi 10:00am ( frm Number +91 ********38) to my cell phone#+91 ********98, she said she is calling from Infolinejob services, informed me that my CV had been selected a Head consultant of Zara clothing in Bangalore for the Sr.Merchandiser post ( she said it was a confirmed job and only my CV was selected out of 20 candidates) and asked whether i would be interested to join, since it was in my favor, i agreed. Then she said i should enrool in their website and for enrollment and she guided me to go online to the company website "www.infolinejob.com" and guided me on to fill in the application form online. At the end of the form there was a provision of making a payment of Rs 3,000( for 7 years service) and 2, 500/( for 4 years) - as registration fee which had not been discussed with me before. I informed her that i don't have my credit card so i won't be able to make payment. she said she will call back tomorrow and requested me to keep my card ready for this process. On 12th she called me again and again persisted that it is really a worth payment since i am the only one candidate they have selected and only this step will ensure the Job. Since it was a nominal fee, and she assured that with all these are proofed transactions nothing can go wrong i mad a payment of Rs 2500/- via my Times card ( xxxx xxxx xxxx 7632). After that she said my registration was successful and to check my mail cheeni2004@gmail.com for the same ( which I got the confirmation mail on this ID) and also i will receive a call from them tomorrow . On 13th One person Ms Neha called me frm cell# +********993 and said since Zara hires a pvt detective agency to verify my document they will charge a nominal fee of 20% of the detective cost to the candidate which will be refunded by Zara at the time of interview which is only Rs 6,200 and balance will be paid by Infolinejob itself. this is a method adopted by Zara to get a genuine candidates. she said the amount should be deposited to the companie's HDFC bank Account # 50200011001068 A/C name Infoline services A/C type current account, IFSC :HDFC0000247. Since I was skeptic i didn't pay the amount on that day but she called 4-5 time s and assured me that this amount will be Handed-over to me by Zara as cheque itself, immediately after interview i agreed to pay and on 14th May i paid the above said amount via Cheque # 487115 dtd 14/05 drawee Bank SBM, HBR Lyt, Bangalore to the said account. and i scanned the same along with my payslip, degree certificate and current company ID and mailed her on the same day. she was upset that i made cheque payment instead of cash, but since the amount got realized on 15th she was ok with that and after realization of the cheque she call me and confirmed. She said they will generate ID's for both the process ( reference ID and document verification ID) . On 16th May Neha mailed both the IDs ( Ref ID# KJ2638 and Document verification ID JH 3766 exclusively generated for me!). She called on the same day and said since the company is offering a salary pkg of 1300000 Per year in order to to increase my salary by 200% ( which is a must for Zara as this is what thay will pay for selected candidate) and to do this I should be paying Rs 10,800 which is again will be refunded by Zara at the time of interview itself. This time i was furious and said i will not pay and i want my 6,200back she said mam it is for your benefit only that the process initiated by infolinejob to get salary increment so that the 10% amount which they get from Zara as the service charges will benifit them and this is refundable amount. she sent a mail to confirm that this amount is refundable by Zara at the time of interview. I said i will not pay any amount since it is too much form me. She said we know it is your hard earned money but we will ensure you will receive this amount once you attend the interview. with much coaxing I agreed to pay the amount. She said since HDFC account has some problem i should be depositing the cash to IDBI bank Account #003********28671 A/C name infolinejob services, Branch Patim pura New delhi, current account On 21st I remitted a cash of Rs 10,800 to this IDBI account. She called 20th may and said one Mr Rohit malhotra will call me further. On 21st This Rohit called and said i am only 1 step away from getting the interview call and since Zara will generate the Job confirmation Id which will ensure that i am the only 1 and the confirmed candidate selected i should be paying Rs18,00/- which will be refunded during the interview along with Rs6,200 and 10,800. since they want only serious candidate they will ensure in this way and which is refundable once i attend the interview. I was very upset i said you have put me into a situation where in i cannot go back as i have already invested Rs19,500/- i asked him to reimburse these amount ( 2500+6200+10,800) immediately. he said the amount will be refunded at the time of Interview. He also sent me a mail that except Rs 2500 which is infolinejob registration fee balance amount are all refundable at the time of interview. He requested me to complete this step and by Monday i will get the interview call from Zara. I believed this also and deposited Rs 18,00/- on 22nd to the same IDBI account ( above said account) and mailed the scanned copy of the same to Rohit. on the same day he mailed the Job confirmation ID( ZAR5231 ) and Salary Increment ID ( ZAR521). he said Monday i will get the interview call from Zara. Today ie., 23rd May one Ajay Oberoi, the Director of Infolinejob.com calls me from Cell # +********0036 and says I should pay an amount of Rs 25,000/- to arrange Zara consultant Mr Selavkumar to come to Bangalore on 25th and to conduct the telephonic interview!! this is when i confirmed myself that I have been cheated by Infoline services in the pretext of getting me a confirmed Job. I called Ajay and blasted him reg all this and said i will sue you people for this fraud, but he said "Mam this is Indian's mentality, they will not pay the amount and expect the best Jobs, we are not fradu company they are consultants for only 2-3 companies lite Zara, Walmart, and i should believe him. After paying this Rs25,000/- which is again refundable at the time of interview, i will be hired directly!! so do not worry and pay this amount to the same IDBI account. he said for all payments you have done to companies current account, you have the proof. so no one can cheat you if you have the proof. but now I am certain that this is a fraud gang which is extracting money from Job aspirants.

Since i have been cheated by Infolinejob services, I would request that the case be investigated as I have all the mail proofs, SMS proofs and the payment proofs . I wish to state the following facts for consideration of the forum:- a) I did not contact Infolinejob.com nor did I send them my CV or Profile for seeking a job. b) I was contacted by Deepti, Nehs, Rohit on my Mobile number ( how they obtained this number is still not known to me, probably frm Job portals...) c) thay assured me that i was the only candidate got selected and this is confirmed job only for me and this offer was genuine. If any more proof is required i a ready to send them also. please do let me know.

Look forward to an early resolution of the case and refund of my money by Infolinejob.com - Chetana BS, 20/A, ist cross, Lakshamamma Layout, Banasawadi, Bangalore 560043, Mob - ********98.
