“Ghanshyam works in my company and last year, he told me a scheme where I had to give my two credit cards for transactions of Rs 2,25,000 in exchange for a higher dividend. Ghanshyam told me that his associate Rahul Sharma works in share markets and he withdraws money from credit cards to put in share markets after which higher returns are given to the card holders. Last year in December, I paid Rs 2,25,000 to Ghanshyam through swiping of my credit cards however I was only given Rs 1,50,000 cheque. Likewise, 34 other employees of my company have been duped in the same manner by Ghanshyam and Rahul Sharma,” said Parmar in his complaint.
