The Fake Business

Faguni Verma

Are we really working in some accredited organisation that does not go around fooling people! India is going the digital way and IT sector is also booming with a lot more career opportunities. We have a lot many IT hubs and it is a privilege for any town to get one of its own. But what are we doing with this technology? 

Indians would remain stagnant to their approach always and would create a new alternative of earning money and that too without involving a lot of hard work. A lot of BPO's or Call Centres as we like to call them are fooling people and that too openly. And yet, no such fraudulent company has ever been charged. Why? God knows!

But, to these companies which are working in a 10 by 10 area and with an access of 2-3 foreign numbers and connection (at the name of their some distant friend or relative who is ultimately their Board of Director) are deceiving aspirants. Most of these IT companies do not have any accreditation with Microsoft, Adobe, HP or any of the brand they claim to be working with. They are opening up hoax setups and deluding every one with their bluff. Foreigners are easy to deceive and that is what we Indians are doing. With a bit of an accent and technical knowledge, we are able to shell out tons of money that is by the way an illegal one too and putting it in our pockets. How do we justify the act? And still youngsters are unemployed in our country!
