Just came across the news about the remote-access cheating racket that was busted. Honestly, it was a wake-up call.

A lot of people assume these things are impossible to detect, but that's clearly not the case anymore. Companies and authorities are getting much better at identifying suspicious activity, and once you're caught, the consequences can go way beyond losing a single opportunity.

If anyone is planning to use AnyDesk, TeamViewer, remote desktops, external solvers, or any similar setup during OAs or interviews, I'd seriously reconsider. Even if it seems to work once, it's not worth putting your degree, placement, and reputation on the line.

Just wanted to share this because placement season is around the corner for many of us. We've all worked too hard to throw it away for a shortcut.

Stay safe, prepare well, and earn your offer the right way. Good luck to everyone.

Hi everyone. Recently, several students were scammed by a fake firm selling fraudulent internship certificates. I dug into this, and what I found is a massive web of hypocrisy, threats, and deceit right here on Reddit.

The person behind this scam is actively using this subreddit to eliminate his "competitors" while posing as a good samaritan. Some of the examples are :

Here is the complete breakdown and proof of how Ad**ya Ku*ar Sinha, the founder of FireLLama, is scamming students and manipulating this community.

⚠️ The Scam: FireLLama:

FireLLama is a fraudulent firm that gives out fake internship certificates to students in exchange for money. This has actually been called out on this sub before: See here

The Mastermind & The Proof:

The guy running this is Ad**ya Ku*ar Sinha. He operates by offering these paid certificates and sharing his contact details for the transactions.

Proof of selling certificates for money: Screenshot here

Note his mobile number in the proof: 629**74971

Proof of Identity: Checking that exact mobile number on Paytm brings up the name Ad**ya Ku*ar Sinha. Paytm proof here.

The Modus Operandi & Reddit Manipulation:

Here is where it gets incredibly twisted. Ad**ya uses multiple Reddit accounts to run his operation.

When I tried to expose his initial account (which had the username 'puzzlehead'), he immediately slipped into my DMs, threatening me with police action and his "connections" to silence me.

Proof of Threats: Here

But his main account—the one he uses to manipulate this community—is u/West_Poetry_7183 .

This user regularly posts here, "exposing" other fake internship firms. But he isn’t doing it to protect you; his actual modus operandi is to eliminate his competitors so he can monopolize the market and sell his own fake FireLLama certificates.

Connecting the Dots (The Smoking Gun) :

How do we know u/West_Poetry_7183 is Ad**ya? He doxxed himself.

Step 1: From the u/West_Poetry_7183 account, he shared his Telegram ID with someone. Screenshot Proof

Step 2: Looking up that exact Telegram ID reveals it is linked to the exact same mobile number (629**74971) used to sell the FireLLama certificates. Telegram Proof

Important Note on Fabricated Proofs:

Anticipating that he might see this post, quickly change his Telegram ID/username, and claim these screenshots are "fabricated," I have already taken a complete screen recording. The video shows me navigating to his profile and verifying the username and number live. If he tries to deny this, the video evidence is ready for the mods.

Next Steps:

This guy broke the trust of the mods and the entire Reddit community by posing as a whistleblower while running a fraudulent operation in the shadows. He relies on a "Threaten and Sell" scheme to keep people quiet.

I am not associated with HawkVance Pvt. Ltd. or any of his competitor firms, i have already shared my real identity wirh the mods of this sub for verification; I am just tired of seeing students get robbed. I am in the process of filing an FIR against him and will share the copy with the mods/community once it is registered.

To the community: Please beware of FireLLama, report his accounts, and do not fall for these fake paid internships or their certificates. As this kind of guy can threaten you also tomorrow.

To the mods: Please look into this evidence and permanently ban his accounts and his posts as well, since they may have manipulated content, looking at the credibility of this account. He is actively using your platform to run a scam.

Stay safe, everyone.

So i got a text on the fiveer saying he had a job offer for me and for a fresher like me he offered $1200/month and i thought it was a scam and tired to find his linkedin which i did get and he was like that was him ,he even gave his ph number so called him his accent was not like. Scamer but i still felt the scammy vibes and when I asked for JD it has some bs and since it has no mention of the company I asked for the company in the call and he said he worked for some third party companies and was hiring for onsen and when I asked about technical skills he was "You need Go od communication skills" and i again asked "what about technical stuff?" He replied "u take care of the technical stuff it's easy but u must be good with English since we will be talking to us clients".

😑😑😑

This is his linkedin

This is something extremely disgusting. A women is not safe in her home also. What can we do to ensure safety from gig workers ?
