Possible Data Entry Scam Possible Data Entry Scam

3 years ago

On 6th November, I received a call from the data entry services for the company Wapnotech. They said for 520 forms in 5 days I would get 30 rupees per form which is like 15600 o so. They also said that after the work only if the report is good, ten i have to pay 5900 from the salary i recieve. If accuracy falls below 90%(468 forms), it will be rejected and i have to pay 5900. I found it very exaggerating as no one would offer 30 rupees to fill a 4X4 values for name, address, etc. It was pretty off. I had a strong suspicion. Because, they asked for digital signature for agreement and photo and address proof but no bank account. I filled just 13 forms. But i started doing my research . All cities and addresses in the form don't exist. The customer care no. doesnt respond. It is just 2 ppl i have spoken too. What shall i do SIR/ MADAM ?

A.You should not engagege in working with them, as even their Identity is not clear. What agreement have you signed online? In such cases, after some time they will send you a legal notice asking for some compensation for breach of contract however on false grounds.

A.Hi,
If they make any demand for money, then make a police complaint against the company for extortion of money and mental harassment.
Moreover, you can make a complaint along with all the evidences with the cyber crime police.
