World Startup Convention - A Scam?

World's biggest funding festival World Startup Convention began yesterday in Greater Noida. It had promised that Elon Musk, Google CEO Sundar Pichai and Softbank's Masayoshi Son will be a part of the event.

It also claimed that PM Modi and Nitin Gadkari will be present as well.

The event boasted that as much as 75000 startups will be a part of the event and as many as 10,000 investors will take part.

When the event finally started, there were hardly any investors and people called it a big scam.

Criminals who asked people to participate in this event. Praful Chaiwala even told he will be thr too. High time we call out these scamsters and expose and cancel them aggressively.

anything which mentions the name warikoo and chaiwala is a red flag

Sends a great message to global investors. India has a very bad reputation for scams. The government needs to take this seriously and clamp down on such scams or all the efforts to promote India will go nowhere

Always Remember "If something is too good to be true, then it probably is"

"If something seems too good to be true then it probably isn't" (improved grammar)

[piyushjha]

No wonder in India people gets easily influenced by ads, religious toxic debates, poltical propagandas easily because critical thinking and cross questioning is not taught in schools or at early ages which is pretty important in life!!

[shobhitsadwal]

Oh shit, may all the people get there money back.

[biosurya]

Even the smallest sense of desperation - scammers know u r the one 😐

When Indian call centre reps organize a convention 😂

[transfrom-lifewithBhaskar]

Thank god, I have cancelled my plan to attend this, I have saved my time & money.

Indian politicians, police and bureaucrats are sleeping as always. The current government is working so hard to improve India’s image outside the country but doesn’t give a fuck when something happens inside India that’s ruining its reputation.

Not the first time they have f up... it's been happening for a while

[sachin]

This used to happen in the 90s
Aaj bhi log ullu ban jaate hain 😂😅

So people really thought that investors will visit a convention where startups would feature by virtue of just a PASS?
