Fraud Complaints
Complaint Date: October 4, 2023
I am a housewife and I was searching for Work from Home jobs. I found this link through some acquaintance (https://cfopdvx.vip/?invite=yhmmt#/register). I registered and started working from 28.09.2023. Ms Shaina Singh approached me with WhatsApp no. 8980941485. In Truecaller it's showing Groupon company's number but in WhatsApp, the sim owner's name is called Francisco Kelly.
She helped me with login procedure and later on she shared a link to a telegram saying that my mentor Mr. Arjun ( telegram link - https://t.me/Aruna666888) would help me with further process. Initially, when I paid 100 rs I got a Rs. 60 commission. Later on, I did the task of Rs. 500 but that Rs. 500 reached Rs. 1,30,000 in total investment from my side. I was harassed multiple times with dire consequences about a frozen account and no refund if I don't complete my given task once it got started so I had to put the money by borrowing from here and there so as not to lose my already invested money. Once I completed my last task, this Arjun (Fraud name) guy told me that I was ready to do my withdrawal so I initiated my Withdrawal process on 30th September (Saturday) at around 4:00 pm. Upon completing my withdrawal procedure using my Union Bank of India account (linked with Groupon), the system got stuck saying it was in progress. So, I contacted Arjun again about the issue and he said it's Saturday evening so I have to wait till Monday for the process to confirm. I said ok and waited till Monday but it didn't get processed on Monday too so upon re-inquiry, he told me I have to pay their mandatory handling charges of 5% to be paid in advance if the money exceeds Rs. 1 Lakh. So I had to put another 5% of Rs. 9,285 in the Groupon account in the belief of getting back my money. Upon depositing the 5% charge amount, my withdrawal status was showing successful instead of progressing as it was showing earlier. The Arjun guy told me the money would be reflected in my account within 3 hours initially but he changed his statement to 24 hours later. I waited for the said time patiently but haven't received even a single penny from Groupon's side till now and it's been more than 36 hours since the successful withdrawal process. Please help me get back my money from these Fraudsters. They are neither responding to my messages nor giving me any call assistance even after my repeated requests from 3rd October to 4th October. I am still trying to contact them, they are always online but not replying to any of my messages.
