In November 2025, a person told me he could arrange a job for me. I sent him ₹10,000 through PhonePe. The payment went directly to his number, and I still have the PhonePe transaction ID and receipt.
Later I realized the job was not real. When I asked for my money back, he kept delaying. He also said the money was given to a “Wipro manager,” but when I contacted that person, she said she never received any money.
Recently I sent a message to his father asking for the money to be returned. After that, the person who took the money started calling me many times and said he would return the money. However, he keeps insisting that I pick up the call. He has not actually sent the money yet. Earlier he even told me to come in person and apologize to his father before he would return the money, which I refused.
I already sent him a final message asking him to return the ₹10,000 to the same PhonePe number within 24 hours. Since then he keeps calling but still hasn’t sent the payment.
I have:
- PhonePe transaction proof
- WhatsApp chats
- His phone number
- Call logs showing repeated calls
I’m currently waiting for the 24-hour deadline to finish before deciding my next step.
