Tirunelveli: A Tirunelveli youth claims to have been cheated to the tune of Rs 14 lakh by a fake British firm that promised him a job as a fire safety officer.
Anthony Stalin (27), a B.com graduate, who did a fire safety course, was employed in a company in Coimbatore as fire safety officer when he learnt about a similar job on offer in a British company, Wicked Field Global Oil and Gas and applied for it online.
Following an online interview, an official from the company, Taylor Eliot , reportedly instructed him to pay Rs 1 lakh for his visa expenses and Rs 3 lakh more for the registration of his certificates in England.
But Antony claims that even after he deposited the amount demanded from him in the bank account given by Taylor, he did not receive the appointment order. Worried, he said, he contacted the company again only to be met for more demands for money. The so-called company officials allegedly told him that the money was not refundable if he did not take the job.
So Anthony, hoping to get the job in London with the promised pay of Rs 2 lakh a month, deposited the money they asked for at intervals. In all , he sent them Rs 14,08,450 over about six months.
