All India Pregnant Job service: Indian men conned by 'impregnating women' scam
As cyber scams go, this one is rather unique.
In early December Mangesh Kumar (name changed) was scrolling on Facebook when he came across a video from the "All India Pregnant Job Service" and decided to check it out.
The job sounded too good to be true: money — and lots of it — in return for getting a woman pregnant.
It was, of course, too good to be true. So far, the 33-year-old, who earns 15,000 rupees ($180; ?142) per month working for a wedding party decoration company, has already lost 16,000 rupees to fraudsters — and they are asking for more.
But Mangesh, from the northern Indian state of Bihar, is not the only person to fall for the scam.
