Don't expose your personal details on job portals / networki

1533 views 11 replies

A few days ago, I got a call from some Maninder Singh (Ph. 011 43197009) representing ICICI Bank, Videocon Towers, Jhandewalan, New Delhi. He said that I have a outstanding loan taken for purchasing a Hyundai Accent.
I got shocked after hearing this, since I never had any kind of relationship with this bank. I asked him to confirm the details in his records. All the details he gave about me, seems to be downloaded from my naukri.com profile, because I use different mail id, cell no. , address etc. for job portals. 

I immediately registered a complaint on ICICI Bank's website and still waiting for their explanation.


We should be very careful about giving our personal details and photographs on job portals (naukri, monster etc.), social & professional networking sites (facebook, linkedin etc.), because it can be misused by unscrupulous people (like ICICI bank, its DSAs and recovery agents), for forging documents for taking loan or mobile connection etc. in your name.


P.S. - Thanks to ICICI Bank for making me the owner of a Hyundai Accent, at least in their records. In reality, I don't even have the margin money to take a loan for a Tata Nano.

Thanks for sharing Mr. Vivek.,

I also want to share about the miss use of our profiles created on different job portals. Few days ago I got an e-mail for interview from MARUTI SUZUKI INDIA LTD., Delhi. 

They were saying that they will give Air Ticket for attending interview in DELHI on there Head Office. And they mentioned a very High pay package for the posts. So, that was the first point to create doubt in mind.

And the doubt was confirmed when I read the point where they have demanded 11,500 Rs. as a security deposit for interview.

All details were mentioned on Letter Head of Maruti Suzuki India Ltd. I immediatley searched on google about the same and found that lots of complaints were already registered on different websites and surprisingly I got the same news from my few of friends that they have got Job Offer from the MSIL. I said them make alert to all.

The all details were taken from our profiles made on differnt job portals.

Thanks & Regards,

Abhi
