Defendant – All of Delhi – Allegedly deceived more than 300 people throughout the country, including in Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi, Haryana and others.
During last year’s lock, three friends – Abhishek (30), Aarohi (24) and Himanshu (30) – opened the call center in Delhi.
Kingpin, Himanshu, will collect data about job seekers from various websites.
Prospective jobs usually post their CV and resume on the platform to keep themselves notified about job openings.
Gang takes advantage of data and uses it to do full fraud.
Himanshu will supply information to Aarohi and Abhishek to maintain ran fraud.
Abhishek then will call nearly 50 applicants a day and promise them work in a large company.
Aarohi will take care of management in their company.
The defendant will take money from applicants on the name of the registration and then send them an email through a fake ID made on behalf of the Indian Airport Authority (AAI), National Career Service (NCS) or digital career service for online registration and interviews.
Describing the modus operandi, Inspector of Vasant Kumar, Sho (Cyber Police Station) said the defendant used to scan a portal such as Quikr and Naukri to gather details of prospective jobs.

They will make calls to potential jobs, painting reddish images while eating work on the condition that they first have to register with them.
On behalf of registration, prospective jobs are asked to make a payment.
After a few days, they sent an email for online interviews in return for payments.
They will also falsify interviews in lieu of more charges.
“Also, they will falsify the training session and impose money for it.
We have found 15 fake e-mail id on behalf of different companies,” Sho said.
