It has come to our notice about people investing their savings and getting other people to invest in companies promising fixed high returns on amount invested.
\nIn the recent past, the law enforcement agencies have raided about 129 of such companies in\u00a0Maharashtra, Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Tamilnadu, Orissa, West Bengal, etc\u00a0after complaints of cheque bouncing from various investors who had invested huge amounts with such companies.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We are coordinating with the departments of Income tax and other allied government authorities to end bad practices.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Good news in is , that now the people involved in the scams would be eligible for life imprisonment <\/span>for which we would take all necessary steps to ensure air tight investigation leaving no loop holes for the culprits to escape the law. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The top networkers and promoters of these companies have been arrested or are absconding because they were fully aware of the consequences of their business plan.
\nMeanwhile, some promoters have closed down the old investment plan companies and started new ones with different names in other states.
\nRecovery process in this type of companies may not be fully possible but police will make sure that the properties of their relatives and friends (mapped via the transactions) are attached.

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

We at Strategy India, would request senior networkers to resist investing money as well as abstain from getting investment for these types of companies using the MLM compensation plans.<\/span><\/span> <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Some tips for curbing this scam:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

1) Do not<\/strong> accept any deposits in your personal accounts, for if you do you would be liable to pay the amount to the person who deposits it.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2) Do not<\/strong> take a pin\/s against commissions.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3) Do not<\/strong> invest till you have the entire details on the company including the names of the directors, the address of the directors, their personal account numbers, their background and the copy of registration of the company.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

4) Do not<\/strong> deposit money in the account if the name of the account is not the same as of the company.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

5) Do not<\/strong> commit or guarantee returns to the people who trust you.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

6) Do not<\/strong> invest without checking the business plan of the company \u2013 business plan means \u201cthe way the company would invest your money to get the type of returns promised to you in a particular time frame\u201d. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

7) Do not<\/strong> take loans or sell or mortgage property\/jewellery to invest in these types of plans.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2) If the company is closed or shifted, speak to the person who got you to invest, to help you recover the money.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
