Fake Tata Semiconductor Job Scam in Assam
In Assam, India, some bad people are tricking young job seekers by promising them jobs in a big project called Tata Semiconductor.
They ask for money and give fake job letters.
The police have caught some of these tricksters and have taken away their money from the bank.
This is not the first time this has happened.
Earlier, someone else also tried to trick people by making fake job ads for the same project.
The police are working to stop these scams and protect the young people.
Unscrupulous elements are duping unemployed youths in Assam with fake job offers in the Tata semiconductor project.
The Morigaon police have arrested three individuals, including Saiqul Islam, a lecturer, who spread rumors and provided fake appointment letters.
The gang duped around 200 youths, taking Rs 5,000 initially and later Rs 20 to Rs 30 thousand for final appointment letters.
The court ordered the attachment of Saiqul Islam's bank accounts, which contained Rs 24.95 lakh, under clause 107 of the BNS.
This is not the first instance of such scams; earlier, another individual was arrested for circulating fake job advertisements.
