The accused stole data of job aspirants who had uploaded their resume on job search engines Monster and Shine.com and made bogus job offers to them.
The Cuffe Parade police on Thursday made seventh arrest in the fake job racket case being operated from Noida. The accused stole data of job aspirants who had uploaded their resume on job search engines Monster and Shine.com and made bogus job offers to them.
The arrested person has been identified as Brijeshkumar Thakur, 24, a resident of Gautam Buddh Nagar in Noida, Uttar Pradesh. The police had earlier this month arrested Devrushi Sharma, Vikrant Giri, Jaydeep Shastri, Shashank Dubey, Sonal Rana and Manoj Tiwari in the said case.
“The probe revealed that Noida-based call centre’s rent agreement was on Thakur’s name. Thakur was arrested from Gurugram. The Ratnagiri and Pune police have registered similar offences against the gang now. We are on the lookout for other members of the gang identified as Abhishek Mishra, Bulbul and Hari Priya,” said an officer from Cuffe Parade Police Station.
In October 2017, a woman had complained to the Cuffe Parade police that she was duped to the tune of Rs 1.21 lakh by someone on the pretext of providing her job in HDFC bank.
“While probing the case we came across a gang operating from Noida, sector 63. The accused collected the resume of the job seekers from job websites,” The call centre employees would contact the job aspirants and seek bank account number to deposit money as registration fee in that account. Thereafter, they would ask for more money as interview fees, online interview, selection letter, bond paper, training purposes and for document verification,” said Abhishek Trimukhe, deputy commissioner of police, Zone 1.
Modus Operandi
- The call centre staff would go through the resume of aspirants on job portals sites
- They would ask them to deposit money as registration fee for online interviews.
