Hello everyone . My name is Cameron .

00:08.900 --> 00:11.170
I would like to share you my experience

00:11.170 --> 00:14.500
with the Afghan us army contract . How

00:14.500 --> 00:17.130
I go to the Afghan army contract and

00:17.130 --> 00:19.350
the way I cheated by sub agents on

00:19.360 --> 00:22.630
Afghan army contract . My name is Kumar

00:22.980 --> 00:26.620
and I am from south India . One day

00:26.630 --> 00:29.900
I saw an ad in the newspaper that U . S .

00:29.900 --> 00:32.230
Army contractors recruiting people to

00:32.230 --> 00:35.700
Afghanistan . In that enter placement

00:35.800 --> 00:38.250
they were recruiting for food servicing .

00:39.140 --> 00:41.340
I have already experiencing food

00:41.340 --> 00:44.020
servicing area so I thought of playing

00:44.020 --> 00:47.440
it . I went to the office address which

00:47.440 --> 00:50.550
has mentioned in the newspaper . It is

00:50.550 --> 00:53.630
in North India . To reach there . I had

00:53.630 --> 00:56.750
to travel 36 hours by train from my

00:56.750 --> 01:00.260
hometown to the office address . After

01:00.260 --> 01:03.470
36 hours of long journey I reached the

01:03.470 --> 01:05.870
office and I gave my application to

01:05.870 --> 01:09.090
them . When I gave my application to

01:09.090 --> 01:11.380
them they said they can't take my

01:11.380 --> 01:14.480
application directly the office people

01:14.480 --> 01:17.780
said since I am from south India they

01:17.780 --> 01:20.320
have an office in South India and I

01:20.320 --> 01:22.376
have to submit my application to the

01:22.376 --> 01:26.110
South in the office . So I came back

01:26.110 --> 01:28.880
from north India to South India after

01:28.880 --> 01:31.640
one week I plan to go to the south

01:31.640 --> 01:34.640
indian office . And they have already

01:34.640 --> 01:36.751
given the south in an address to me .

01:37.420 --> 01:40.620
So after one week I went to the South

01:40.620 --> 01:42.676
Indian office address which they had

01:42.676 --> 01:45.630
given the people working there in the

01:45.630 --> 01:47.760
south in the new office said they can

01:47.760 --> 01:50.630
accept my application directly and I

01:50.630 --> 01:52.940
should go through a sub agent to a play

01:52.940 --> 01:56.810
for the post . I said I have full

01:56.810 --> 01:59.210
experience then why should I come

01:59.210 --> 02:01.520
through his salvation ? And they said

02:01.760 --> 02:04.460
no you have to come through a sub agent .

02:05.790 --> 02:09.000
That time I got confused totally . So

02:09.010 --> 02:11.620
after two days I again went to this

02:11.630 --> 02:14.570
office to submit my application and

02:14.570 --> 02:17.070
they told me that we have already told

02:17.070 --> 02:19.470
you to come by a sub agents . Then why

02:19.470 --> 02:23.110
would you come directly that time ? I

02:23.110 --> 02:26.010
told them I don't know any sub agents .

02:26.830 --> 02:29.720
And they helped me with 7-8 sub agents

02:29.720 --> 02:33.370
name and contact information . So I

02:33.370 --> 02:36.070
called each number and told about my

02:36.070 --> 02:39.100
experiences and my invention to work

02:39.110 --> 02:42.520
with Afghan us army contract . Each of

02:42.530 --> 02:44.920
them told me to come to their office .

02:46.040 --> 02:49.110
I went to three offices later that week .

02:49.300 --> 02:51.960
But the problem was they were charging

02:51.970 --> 02:55.090
too much money for the job . They asked

02:55.090 --> 02:58.120
me to pay to get the post how much they

02:58.130 --> 03:01.610
asked this . Some people asked $3000

03:01.850 --> 03:05.280
whereas some asked $3500

03:05.940 --> 03:08.107
that time I don't have that much money

03:08.107 --> 03:12.040
with me . So I waited almost 1.5

03:12.050 --> 03:14.690
months with the hope that some other

03:14.690 --> 03:17.220
subversion might ask some less amount .

03:18.400 --> 03:21.410
And finally I got a call from sub agent

03:21.420 --> 03:24.540
who asked less amount . The amount is

03:24.550 --> 03:28.480
₹80,000 which is comparatively

03:28.480 --> 03:32.060
list to what others asked . But still

03:32.320 --> 03:35.570
this 80,000 is big amount for me . It's

03:35.570 --> 03:38.260
almost my eight month salary back than

03:38.260 --> 03:41.930
in India . But I don't have any

03:41.940 --> 03:44.600
other choice because other agents were

03:44.610 --> 03:48.490
asking huge money . So I said okay to

03:48.490 --> 03:52.310
this agent and I said I will arrange

03:52.310 --> 03:54.800
the money anyhow . But please get me

03:54.800 --> 03:58.420
this job . And they said you give us

03:58.420 --> 04:02.100
the money we will get you this job .

04:02.110 --> 04:05.360
So I took my mother's gold and gave it

04:05.370 --> 04:07.930
to a money lender with high amount of

04:07.940 --> 04:10.990
interest rate . It was 25% interest

04:10.990 --> 04:14.140
rate . And I gave the money to the

04:14.140 --> 04:16.770
subdivision . Then the sub agent told

04:16.770 --> 04:20.270
me that now I can go to the main

04:20.270 --> 04:22.990
office , we got the money we will

04:22.990 --> 04:25.770
inform the main office . And he asked

04:25.770 --> 04:27.381
my passport number and other

04:27.381 --> 04:31.040
information . Then the subdivision

04:31.040 --> 04:33.430
called the main office and informed

04:33.430 --> 04:36.590
them that I have given money so recruit

04:36.590 --> 04:39.110
this person and allow him to attend the

04:39.120 --> 04:43.060
interview . Later when american

04:43.060 --> 04:45.430
person took my interview and I got

04:45.430 --> 04:47.850
selected for the fourth servicing post ,

04:48.740 --> 04:51.230
he mentioned the salary has for one

04:51.230 --> 04:54.260
other four U . S . Dollars and 25 cents .

04:54.300 --> 04:58.050
Likewise two lovers for a job in a day

04:58.060 --> 05:01.240
and seven days of vague . I said okay

05:01.240 --> 05:03.810
to them because the salary was good for

05:03.810 --> 05:07.630
me and I agreed . Then I called the sub

05:07.630 --> 05:11.070
agents and told them that I got the job

05:11.080 --> 05:13.770
and he said okay glad that you got the

05:13.770 --> 05:17.420
job . After that I was here in

05:17.420 --> 05:20.040
India for 1-2 months for my medical

05:20.040 --> 05:23.160
checkups which they have mentioned for

05:23.160 --> 05:26.900
that we have to pay separately after

05:26.900 --> 05:30.300
finishing medical 23 months later they

05:30.300 --> 05:33.710
said I have selected now you can travel

05:33.990 --> 05:36.450
and they send us to Dubai . I and my

05:36.450 --> 05:39.160
friends reached Dubai after two days

05:39.170 --> 05:42.110
one newest person came and said that

05:42.270 --> 05:44.410
you don't have job in food services

05:44.420 --> 05:46.770
area . But there is a job in general

05:46.770 --> 05:49.380
labor . If you're interested then you

05:49.380 --> 05:52.960
can join . So I said I got

05:52.960 --> 05:55.520
selected for food servicing . So I

05:55.520 --> 05:57.853
would like to work with that department .

05:58.040 --> 05:59.850
Plus the payment was good

06:00.270 --> 06:04.180
$4.25 . But for general labor it

06:04.180 --> 06:07.660
was $2.25 . So I told them

06:07.920 --> 06:10.770
from India they said something but now

06:10.770 --> 06:13.120
in Dubai you are telling something else .

06:14.040 --> 06:17.000
Then he said if you are interested then

06:17.000 --> 06:20.850
come helps go back to India . We

06:20.850 --> 06:23.090
go disappointed and devastated that

06:23.100 --> 06:26.600
time we don't know what to do at that

06:26.610 --> 06:30.090
time . We obviously can go back to

06:30.090 --> 06:32.950
India because we had to spend a lot of

06:32.960 --> 06:36.580
money to reach here . What ? So finally

06:36.780 --> 06:39.750
we agreed them for general labor And

06:39.750 --> 06:42.140
visit Okay for the last pay scale .

06:43.570 --> 06:46.270
We reached Afghanistan and we worked

06:46.270 --> 06:49.930
there for 6-7 months only . But by

06:49.930 --> 06:53.450
then the base closed and they told us

06:53.450 --> 06:57.030
to go back to India . But the agent who

06:57.040 --> 07:00.860
took money from us from India told that

07:00.870 --> 07:03.270
it's a two year job and that's why we

07:03.270 --> 07:06.300
are paying this much money and he gave

07:06.300 --> 07:08.760
assurance to that it's a two year job .

07:09.240 --> 07:11.780
But the base closed in six months and

07:11.780 --> 07:15.690
they send us all back to India . That

07:15.690 --> 07:18.140
time I reached India but I couldn't go

07:18.140 --> 07:20.500
back to my hometown because of shame .

07:21.020 --> 07:23.570
My family members will ask that . Why

07:23.570 --> 07:25.700
did you come back in six months after

07:25.700 --> 07:28.380
paying this much money ? So what I did

07:28.380 --> 07:31.250
of us . I went to Mumbai without

07:31.250 --> 07:34.140
informing my family and I worked there

07:34.150 --> 07:37.560
almost 7-8 months And then I went to my

07:37.560 --> 07:40.220
hometown . The thing is this is not

07:40.220 --> 07:43.040
just happened to me or just an isolated

07:43.040 --> 07:45.440
incident but a lot of other people got

07:45.440 --> 07:47.710
cheated this way . I only paid

07:47.720 --> 07:51.440
₹80,000 . But when I asked others

07:51.530 --> 07:54.400
they all paint to three lags which I

07:54.400 --> 07:56.790
came to know after reaching Afghanistan .

07:56.930 --> 07:59.490
And the situation is so sad because

07:59.490 --> 08:02.130
they all arranged money by selling

08:02.130 --> 08:05.190
their lands or mortgage their lands and

08:05.190 --> 08:07.850
gold to money lenders in India with

08:07.850 --> 08:10.310
heavy interest rate . Now they don't

08:10.310 --> 08:13.560
have neither job nor home and gold .

08:14.040 --> 08:16.720
The money lenders took them , I give

08:16.720 --> 08:19.350
less amount to the sub agent , most of

08:19.350 --> 08:23.160
them paid 3 to $4000 and they had a

08:23.170 --> 08:26.750
job for six months . They also didn't

08:26.750 --> 08:29.200
go to their hometown . Some when Dell ,

08:29.200 --> 08:32.200
he and someone northern therefore jobs

08:32.210 --> 08:35.740
so that they get money now and they can

08:35.750 --> 08:37.583
pay back this money to the money

08:37.583 --> 08:40.510
lenders . Why I am sharing you . This

08:40.510 --> 08:43.250
is because in U . S . Army contract

08:43.250 --> 08:46.050
jobs . Sub agents charging a lot of

08:46.060 --> 08:48.590
money from the candidate . So please

08:48.590 --> 08:52.210
try to stop this so that in future it

08:52.210 --> 08:55.590
might help to others . I still love to

08:55.590 --> 08:58.620
work with us army contract jobs . But

08:58.620 --> 09:00.840
now I don't have money to pay the sub

09:00.840 --> 09:04.310
agents . And my dreams got over because

09:04.310 --> 09:07.440
of this incident . So kindly recruit

09:07.440 --> 09:11.010
directly . I worked with us

09:11.010 --> 09:14.250
company but I got cheated . My dream

09:14.250 --> 09:16.980
was working with us company . I got the

09:16.980 --> 09:20.310
opportunity but lost my money and I go

09:20.310 --> 09:23.790
cheated by surveillance . All this

09:23.790 --> 09:26.690
happened to me . This shouldn't happen

09:26.690 --> 09:29.650
to another one , so please do something .

09:29.660 --> 09:33.500
Please stop this . In future , it will

09:33.500 --> 09:37.340
be useful for others . It's my

09:37.340 --> 09:39.890
humble request . Thank you so much for

09:39.890 --> 09:40.860
the opportunity .
