Lucknow: An unemployed postgraduate man was duped of Rs 5 lakh on the pretext of a clerical job in Air India by a man who claimed to be an officer in the company.
The man lodged an FIR of cheating at Gomtinagar police station on Friday evening.
Vinay Khand resident Manish Kumar Yadav, who has a commerce degree, said he had been applying for government and private jobs but could not get success.
In 2017, a man named Sunil Kumar Bhardwaj met him, claiming to be a senior officer at Air India. He offered Yadav a clerical job but demanded Rs 7 lakh from him.
Yadav "convinced" Bhardwaj to seal the deal for Rs 5 lakh. He gave Bhardwaj Rs 3 lakh in cash and Rs 2 lakh through bank transactions and began waiting for an appointment letter. For two years, Bhardwaj remained in contact with Yadav, telling him he would get a letter soon. However, recently, he had started ignoring his calls and messages. Yadav asked him to return his money but Bhardwaj blocked his number.
