A 25-year-old woman got cheated of Rs 2 lakh on the pretext of offering a job in Bengaluru, Karnataka. The victim, Lakshmi, said she had uploaded her resume on a job portal on November 8 and the next day she received a call from a man posing as a job consultant. According to a report in Times of India, the man demanded money from Lakshmi towards completing various formalities for the job requirement.
