Inside the Ghaziabad Scam: How Harsh Vardhan Jain Duped Job Seekers with Fake Credentials

Harsh Vardhan Jain, a Ghaziabad resident, has been exposed for a large-scale job scam. Jain, pretending to be a diplomat from unrecognized nations, enticed job seekers with promises of employment abroad. His deception involved fake documents, forged number plates, and doctored photographs alongside political figures. The UP STF busted Jain’s operation, revealing a complex hawala racket. Authorities confiscated fake seals, forged documents, and a significant sum of cash from his rented residence. Jain’s background includes a family with a history in business. Following his father’s death and a decline in his family’s business, Jain resorted to fraudulent activities, including associating with figures linked to international crime, and subsequently engaging in money laundering and other illicit schemes, ultimately leading to his arrest.
