You can take legal action against a fake job consultant if they obtained money by making false promises or misrepresenting job opportunities. First, gather all evidence, including payment receipts, bank transaction details, WhatsApp chats, emails, advertisements, and any agreement or offer letter. File a complaint with the local police or the Cyber Crime Cell and request registration of an FIR if the facts disclose offences such as cheating or forgery. You may also send a legal notice demanding a refund of the amount paid. If the consultant provided paid services and failed to deliver them, you may have the option of filing a complaint before the appropriate Consumer Commission seeking a refund, compensation, and other relief. If multiple people have been affected, their complaints can strengthen the case by showing a pattern of fraudulent conduct.
Yes you can file a complaint against that consultant. As extorting money in the name of providing a job and not returning the money is a legal offence. Gather all the evidence such as Whatsapp chat or call recording with consultants and the proof of transaction along with this you can send a legal notice and file complaint with the police and Consumer Court.
