Sir/Madam
On 02/10/2020, an unknown number, [protected] contacted me on WhatsApp regarding an Online form filling work from home job. After a registration process that required me to send my ID Proofs and Bank Details, a demo task was given.
Following this, an Agreement was sent by Pearl Services. The online form filling task lasted for a period of 8 days.
The Agreement contained a clause regarding 90% efficiency, on the failure of which, my candidature was to be rejected and I was required to pay Rs. 6700 for utility and maintenance of the online platform.
As mentioned in the Agreement, I believed the Agreement was terminated due to lack of efficiency. Pearl Services, then, contacted me again with an opportunity to make corrections in my task, for which I was required to pay Rs. 6500.
After paying the amount and making corrections in the form, Pearl Services demanded me to pay an advance of Rs. 13, 000 so as to continue performing my form filling tasks. There was no mention of paying such a hefty amount before I entered into the said Agreement.
I wished to terminate the Agreement after having paid Rs. 6500 and having provided my services. Pearl Services constantly harassed me to keep me in the Agreement by demanding me to pay an advance. As I am unable to pay the advance amount of Rs. 13, 000 or any amount more than I have already paid Pearl Services, I was sent emails and Legal notices. After running a search in the Consumer Complaints Forum, I came across similar complaints as mine and learned that Pearl Services is running a scam.
I have already been at a loss of Rs. 6500. Pearl Services is constantly sending emails and making phone calls and harassing me.
Kindly look into the matter.
Thank you
