A website called RewindBackups.com asked me to fill up 481 forms in a week.
4 months ago
Is it a scam and will they also say I had inaccuracy in filling them up and thus ask me for money? Their forms already had many mistakes and the Company and Occupation tabs didn't make sense at all.
A.Dear client, I
If you joined an online job signing an agreement/any offer letter from the Company, then go through the terms and conditions of said letter that stipulate a condition of charging of fine in case of incorrect/inaccuracy response or dereliction in job. In case you find no terms as such in your offer letter then on receipt of such an unethical and arbitrary demand or any threat of legal action from the Company, just ignore such calls or demands. However, on receipt of repeated calls or messages demanding money or threatening to legal action, make a complaint(GD) against the Company at the local police station or Cyber Cell and serve a legal notice to the fraud company enclosing a copy of the police complaint informing them that you are contemplating filing a criminal suit against the Company for cheating and criminal intimidation u/s.415 and 503 of IPC. Further. Section 73 of the Contract Act makes provision for unliquidated damages (not stipulated in a contract) and Section 74 of the Contract Act deals with liquidated damages (stipulated in a contract) and no compensation is attracted for mere breach of contract u/s.73. or 74 of the Act unless such breach resulted in an actual loss or damage to the opposite party Company and they failed to prove it. Hope the matter stands resolved thereafter. In case the matter is not resolved then consult with an Advocate for guidance and steps.

A.Dear Client,
If you encounter forms that appear to have many mistakes, unclear sections, or tabs that don't make sense, it raises red flags and may indicate a potential scam. Legitimate entities typically provide clear and accurate forms for users. Be cautious if you are asked for money due to inaccuracies in filling out forms, as this can be a common tactic used by scammers. Avoid providing personal or financial information, and refrain from making any payments unless you can verify the legitimacy of the organization. If in doubt, conduct thorough research on the company, check for reviews or complaints, and consider consulting with a consumer protection agency or legal professional for guidance. It's essential to prioritize your online safety and be vigilant against potential scams.
Thankyou
