While looking for work from home jobs I came in contact with agent named Kathy who claimed to work for amazon merchant platform(+63 9958729091). she introduce herself and the whole process of earning and said this company is in Philippines. she said me to register my account on a website named amazon58.com. I did the same and started to do as per her guidance initial they recharged my account with Rs.100 to check how to do the process. There were several levels and in each level we had to complete the task where we have to invest first and then they will pay us commission. In the first 2 levels I completed the task and I was able to withdraw the money including commission. I was happy and trusted them so, i went to level three from were all the problem started. The first task was of Rs. 5999 I paid the amount, the agent said I have to complete 3to 5 tasks in order to withdraw money. But with each task the cost of tasks was increasing and i was getting short of money I told her that i want to stop and want my money back she said i have to complete task if i want to withdraw the money. I had no choice but to complete the tasks. my last order was of Rs.122810 i was shocked to see this huge amount. I told kathy that i don’t have this much money she suggested me to borrow money from my friends else if don’t complete the task my money will not be withdrawn. somehow I managed the money but I was not sure to invest it or not I was having thoughts that they might do fraud with me so i insisted the agent Kathy that I want to talk To her boss or the higher authorities that i will get my money back. I said her that i want to video call her, she denied saying they are not allowed and this no. is system generated, but on my persist request she agreed to do audio call. she gave me one number(+63 9706886188) saying that this is a no. of Merchant who is there boss. I texted on that no. there was lady on the other side named Trisha who said she is a amazon merchant. I told her the whole story and she also said that i have to complete the task to withdraw the money. But i was not convinced so i told her that i want her to give me in written that after completing this last task and paying the amount i will be able to withdraw the money else she there company will pay all my loss. she at first tell me okay and that she will text this on whatsapp , but i said no i want you to write this as a official statement. After sometime she send me a photo of a paper where it was written that i can withdraw my money after completing this last task and paying the amount else merchant will pay all the loss. In the same letter the address of the company was also stated along with my name and address. After this i paid the amount till now i paid them Rs.222687. After i completed the task i asked for the withdrawal and the agent said i can initiate the process of withdrawal. i did the same the agent said it will take 30 min. to 1 hour as the amount is huge and i will get my money back. I waited for an hour but there was no transaction. I texted her but she was not replying i started panicking, I texted the merchant she said i have to contact to my agent she will see what happened. And then the agent replied and said she will check with the finance team and will get back to me. After sometime she said me to login into my account and check the withdrawal history i did the same. Now when i logged in and checked the withdrawal showed unsuccessful i told her the same she said me to click on failed when i clicked on that a message popped out where it was written that i have to do 2 hidden tasks to withdraw the money. I was totally screwed and my doubt changed into reality that i have been fooled. I told the agent that you guys did fraud with me. she said even she wasn’t aware of the fact that there will be some hidden task. I told that you guys gave me written that this is a last task and last payment then i will get my money back. she said sorry but i have to complete the task to withdraw money else my money will remain frozen. I told her to talk to the Merchant she said even merchant can’t help. The merchant will only release my money once the task is complete. All the payments were done on upi ID 67794413@PAYTM,68149547@PAYTM, and i was in ICICI bank account no. 628105038034 and all these payments were done in three days that is from 13-02-2022 to 15-02-2022. I filed the case about this in the local police station and even on the official cyber crime website. Hope i will get justice and will able to caught these money launderers.
