Komal Sharma, preparing for exams in Ghazipur, was introduced to a group promising influence inside state departments; for a price. She paid ₹9 lakh, with ₹1 lakh pending. When no job came, she asked for a refund. She says she was threatened. Police are now investigating the accused; Rajkumar Sharma, Luv Kumar Tiwari, Anju Devi, and Sanjay Sharma; checking bank trails, messages, and if others were similarly cheated. This isn’t rare. Scammers often target young, desperate job seekers by promising ‘guaranteed’ placements. But real government jobs? No one can promise them; especially not for cash. Don’t fall for ‘backdoor’ offers. If it sounds too easy, it’s almost always a trap. Check official portals. Report suspicious offers. Protect yourself before it’s too late.
