Dear All, we want to inform you that someone cheated my friend regarding a job, and he also deposited Rs. 80k in cash into the person's account. However, now when he asked about the job, they replied to wait for it and have not refunded his money for the past 2 years. Can he take this matter to court for a refund? He has kept all the cash deposit forms with the bank seal. Please reply to me. He is facing a significant problem as he borrowed money from others at a monthly interest rate of 4% and has to pay a monthly interest of Rs. 3200.
Please advise.

Understanding the Consequences of Bribery in Job Acquisition
You cannot claim a refund for cash deposited into another account. You made a mistake by trusting someone and attempting to secure a job through bribery. Both asking for a bribe and giving or supporting a bribe are offenses, and now you are facing the consequences. No one can assist you in this matter; your money has been lost.

Legal Recourse for Job Fraud
Do you have any documents wherein he has promised you a job? Without documents or written word, you cannot proceed against anyone. You have been lured, and you, being gullible, have fallen into his trap. You can only use persuasive measures in the matter and not legal remedies. Ignorance of the law is not an excuse.

That's a personal opinion. They cannot use your deposit amount. You should go to court and take legal steps for cheating. The police can help you in this matter. Take all the necessary documents with you. Nobody can cheat you if you are right.

Steps to Recover Money from a Fraudulent Transaction
You have the right to get back the money, not from the bank. You should first lodge a complaint at the nearest police station under the cheating category. If you have the counterfoil from the bank where you deposited the amount, it should be produced as evidence. You can also consult a good lawyer to take legal action if the police are unable or delay the process of getting back the money from the defaulter.

I need to know, was it a direct transfer from account to account, or was any cheque given? Do you have any witnesses, people who were present during the transaction? First of all, nothing to worry about at all...
Secondly, send them an official notice with all the facts and necessary details like the date of the transaction, name of the company, and person responsible. Keep all the emails safe, whichever you have received from them, the exact amount and time of the transaction, and also the debit and credit details and transaction number, if at all they have given you any acknowledgment not just from the bank, but also from the person who has taken the amount, maybe anything like an email, SMS, or a letter or receipt.
Write a notice in your own words, but make sure it is easily understood and the matter is explicit, with all the details you have gathered, and send it through email and also by registered post. Keep a copy and the receipt.
Also, mention that if they fail to respond within a week or 15 days, and if they fail to deposit your amount with interest (you can claim only at the bank interest rate) within a month, they will surely be subjected to the criminal procedure and will face a number of charges claiming for compensation and also punishment under criminal law.
Additionally, mention that you have already spoken to an Advocate, and this notice will serve as the final warning.
Send the notice and wait for their response. The next step would be filing a complaint or seeking legal advice.

I would like to know on what basis your friend deposited Rs. 80,000 in his friend's account. Has his friend given in writing that he would provide a job? In case he wants to prove all these in the Court of Law, these evidences have to be produced to prove the case of cheating. Now, as I see it, the money is almost lost. The only saving grace is that he can tell the Court that he deposited this amount in his account to get a job, but the Court will ask for evidence. If your friend's friend has no answer for this deposit, it can be argued, and the real facts can be elicited from his mouth. This all depends on how a lawyer cleverly argues in the Court. The only course left is to ask the friend to return the money, and at least some part of it may come back!

Personal Experience with Job Consultancies
During my job search, I had my own personal experience with consultancies. They asked for money, Rs. 20,000, without providing a receipt. They directly asked me if I was interested in a "back door entry." The consultancy mentioned that they would recruit me for any relevant job vacancy they had, but there was no guarantee regarding the money. After the probation period, they usually would not terminate you, but there was no assurance that they might not. There are many other ways to enter a company. Whoever is lucky enough gets the jobs they need or want. Not everyone can expect everything they desire.
Few consultancy firms keep their oral promises, while others do not bother to do so.
