We constantly keep on posting some great news related to study abroad and how things are slowly turning into favour of students wanting to get into international education, but still we also keep check on the post which might save someone’s life earnings. At http://gkworks.in/ we genuinely care about people and make sure that they get the best out of their investment. But still there are so many cases where we see parents being robbed by luring them into traps of getting  admission through third party. Recently A neurosurgeon was duped by six fraudsters of Rs 4 lakh in lieu of getting his daughter PG admission in a private medical college in Mumbai. The accused, posing as employees of a medical college, took money from the victims on pretext of registration fees.

According to police, the victim, Nikita Tiwari, 27, a resident of Shakti Nagar in Govindpura, completed her MBBS. She took a competitive exam and qualified for postgraduation. Her father Yogesh Tiwari is a neurosurgeon. As per police, Nikita received three phone calls from three persons, who introduced themselves as employees of the medical college, promising her an admission.

Ahmednagar police already arrested five members of the gang on a complaint filed by another Gwaliorbased medical aspirant, who was duped in similar manner. On April 24, the victim along with her father went to the medical college, where they met the accused. The accused posed as staff of the administrative section and even furnished ID cards of the college, winning the confidence of the man and his daughter The accused took Rs 4 lakh in the name of registration and donation.

This incident shades light on how much important it is to rely on a source which can be trusted, this would be 4-5 incident that we posted but there seems no end to this, we request parents to please check the credentials properly before considering any kind of offer, that is why at GKWorks we make sure to research our stuff thoroughly as that will be responsible for decision that parents make before sending their wards abroad, take care.
