Reports about BrightPath Career Consultants (Example Entity)

Second experience with the same consultancy for a different role (Customer Support, remote). Was asked to pay a ₹1,800 'background verification' fee, then a further ₹3,200 'laptop security deposit' before WFH training would begin. After the second payment, the recruiter's WhatsApp number stopped responding and the group link shared for 'onboarding' had already expired when I tried to check the training schedule.

Found a listing for a 'Senior Data Entry Executive' role posted under BrightPath Career Consultants on a job board. The recruiter contacted me via WhatsApp and asked for a ₹2,500 'document verification and training kit' fee before an official offer letter would be issued. Paid via UPI; an offer letter arrived on company letterhead, but the phone number on it did not match any listed HR department, and follow-up calls went unanswered after payment.
