On 12-August I got a call offering a job of filling 700 forms in 7 days for Rs.35 per form with 90%accuracy, failing which I would have to pay Rs. 3999 as a penalty. Me being a handicapped & bedridden person from the last 3 years asked him to send details, then decide whether to join it or not. He sent me a Login ID and password on WhatsApp and asked my ID card. I gave my licence as my ID proof. Then he asked me to login in with the given details and asked me to write my name on the space given with the mouse and click agree. I did the same. Then after few minutes I saw I had got an email that I will be employed as their employee for a data entry job if I sign, scan, and send the received documents back on their mail, if interested or digitally sign it. I immediately called that person and told that I am cant do this job as I am 61% handicapped and can't do it. But he said I had signed it or pay Rs. 3999. Site is Freelancerforms.in having negative reviews on consumer complaints in. Please help.

Such type of frauds are playing at large on youth these days, I advise you to send a mail stating you can't do the work due to some reason, and if they made any demand for money then make a police complaint against the company for extortion of money and mental harassment.
