Respected Sir /Madam,

I have got an Employment offer as Mechanical Manager vide mail dated 11.02.2019, letter Ref: RC/7199/FCU/19 from Mr. Abraham Wiesel (HR Manager) of Ricoh Construction, No.98 10th St San Francisco, California, USA, Contact no. +1 415 915 6277 & +1 415 429 1041, Mail ID: [email protected] & [email protected] stating that as an employee I have to do all the H1B visa processing expenses which they will refund back once the Visa get approved. They have given me the contact detail of the person for my visa processing who is Hon Ms Patricia L Hoffman, Consulate general of united states, Kolkata, 5/1 Ho chi Minh sarani, Kankaria Estates, Kolkata, India-700071, Contact no: +91 9560828211 & Peter paul - 9742399503, Mail ID: [email protected].

As per the HR’s & Hon Ms Patricia’s instruction to obtain the visa I have made payment Refundable deposit (from 28.02.19 to 07.03.19) of Rs. 13,52,730 so far for Visa fee, Base filing fee, Traveler Insurance, Public law fee, Attorney fee, visa stamping fee, security token fee etc. and received all the payment receipts & letters of US Embassy from her. I have got an Authorization letter to obtain my visa from US Ministry of home affairs mail ID: [email protected] dated 08.03.2019 stating that I have to open Labour account, training & security wages which cost the sum of 12680 US dollars and gave instruction to the US Embassy, Kolkata to cancelled my visa  if I fail to do so.

I request the company HR & the company’s consular to refund back all the payment deposits which I have made so far. Ricoh construction HR manager told/mail me that one of his company person will come over to india to refund back all my money and to process & complete my visa process. Additionally, he told that I have to pick from the airport & take care of him. Further he told to contact Hon Ms patricia for Airport clearance of the Ricoh construction person. I contacted her on 13.03.19, she told that for Airport clearance of that person I have to pay Rs. 52000 and send me the Bank account details for deposit. She called me on 14.03.19 and asked about the payment deposit. I told her once I deposit the money will call back.
