BENGALURU: A 51-year-old HR manager with a tech company at Manyata Tech Park filed a police complaint against three persons, accusing them of forging his letterhead and the firm’s logo to cheat job aspirants.
Three persons approached HR manager Abhijit Roy saying they had paid between Rs 15,000 and Rs 75,000 to a suspect to get a job in the company.
“The three came to us with fake job offer letters given to them by the conmen.
The letters mentioned the victims were appointed and should meet HR manager MR Pradeep. In our company, there is no HR manager by that name. Similarly, the trio took online payment from many others after promising them jobs at our company,” Roy said in his complaint.
The suspects — Sanjeev GG, Deepak Singh and Deepak Kumar Singh, all from Bengaluru — have been booked by police. “They suspects approached aspirants who had uploaded their resumes with different private job consultancy firms. The manner in which they interacted with the victims and won their trust shows they had ample knowledge of the formalities followed by IT firms when hiring employees,” an officer said.
