Are Paid referrals worth it?
I was traumatize to see the amount, I scrolled preplaced & topmate, they asking somewhere 10-15k just for a referral.

Is it ok if you get selected? Just asking? I have referred more than 10+ people in the last 12 months. Never asked a single rupee. But I would like to know what people here think.
