        I worked for a company called Bolt creatives, owned by soham ahuja. He gave me his Twitter account and my work was to manage his Twitter account and message 100s of business and website owners on a daily basis and trying to sell personalized videos for them. I went ahead and got him customers it was 4 hours of work daily and genuinely put my all into it.

        In the end he said he found mistakes in my work when I told him to keep a call and let’s negotiate the payment he just never got back to me and ignored my request for payments. He was extremely sketchy so when I had his Gmail I got a hold of his location and his extra numbers which are connected to his Gmail, do I have a case here and how can I avoid a court battle and get him to pay me. I’m still 18 and soham is in delhi whereas I am in Karnataka.

          Hey man, i was in your shoes 2 years back. I constantly messaged that guy and all the other team mates and asked them for payment. I did that for 2 months and he finally paid me.

          I know how it feels but it’s not worth it for the toll it takes on your mental health. You’re young, take it as a lesson and move on for better opportunities. That exp helped in avoiding these companies and now I’m at a better place.

                  you’ve already waited for 2 months, send him the legal notice.

                Try filing an FIR if possible for fraud.
