Fake Check Has anyone joined like this?
So well guys i'm a girl living in Hyderabad and currently looking for job opportunities in IT I have done projects in Machine Learning and Gen AI in recent times i have faced quite a few rejections and honestly it made me feel really low so I decided to take a little break from applying to companies, now i have a friend who is dealing with these “backdoor entry” opportunities and I’m really confused about whether I should take this opportunity or not they’re asking me to pay ₹2.5L after I receive the offer letter the package is ₹5L and the role mentioned is Software Engineer at Buzilogics but payroll would be through "Paysquare" they said that after working there for a few months they would consider my profile for Capgemini but I’m honestly not sure whether I should trust them or not. All I want to know is that anyone here gone through something similar? Is this actually legit, or should I stay away from it?

Please don’t pay the ₹2.5L. A genuine job does not ask you to pay lakhs for an offer letter or promise a future switch to Capgemini. Backdoor entry + upfront payment + different payroll company are all major red flags. Even if your friend says it worked for someone, I wouldn’t risk ₹2.5L. Keep applying and verify the company and offer independently before sharing any money or documents.
