A post offering work-from-home Dona Pattal (plastic plates) packing jobs with a salary of Rs. 30,000 per month is being widely shared on social media. Sharing a video showing the manufacturing process of plastic plates, the post asks interested people to contact a mobile number which is displayed in the video. Let’s verify the claim made in the post.
Claim: A social media post offering work-from-home Dona Pattal packing jobs with a salary of Rs. 30,000.
Fact: The work-from-home job related to Dona pattal packing, mentioned in the post, is a dubious one. There is no official website or registered company associated with the individual whose contact number was provided in the post. Earlier, similar fake posts allured people to register for work-from-home pen packing jobs in the Nataraj company, for which the organization had to issue a clarification stating these posts as fraudulent. Hence, the claim made in the post is False.
Upon reaching out to the mobile number displayed on the video to gather more details about these work-from-home jobs related to Dona Pattal packing, the individual claimed to operate a Dona Pattal packing enterprise in Jaipur. The individual says that he employs people from different states for the manufacturing of Dona Pattal by facilitating the required manufacturing equipment. He says that registered employees can manufacture Dona Pattal free of cost that too by working from home.
The entrepreneur advertising this Dona Pattal packing job is asking interested job aspirants to make an advance payment of Rs. 650 as part of the application process. He assures a refund of Rs. 600 upon successful approval of the license for employment. When we asked about the official website and the registration details of his company, the individual sent the manufacturing videos, pictures of an Aadhar card copy, and a few pictures of warehouses. The details provided on the Aadhar card states the person’s name as Vinod Sharma and says he is from Sant Ravidas Nagar in Uttar Pradesh.
On reverse image search of the images shared by this individual, we found that these photos show unrelated warehouses in the United States of America. The individual did not provide any further information related to the official website or the registration details of his company.
Earlier, when similar fake posts allured people to register for the work-from-home pen packing jobs of Nataraj pencils/pens, Factly published a fact-check article debunking those posts.
To sum it up, this work-from-home dona pattal packing job offering a salary of Rs. 30000 is a dubious one.
