Housing.com — Fake owner listed in housing.com

I was looking for 2 bhk flat in kormangala and liked one property. So I called the owner. He told me to transfer 5k as token money and surety as he was coming from Mysore. The owner name goes by Shivanshu Reddy. I transferred the money. After sometime he again called me and told to pay 50% of the deposit so that he will come with agreement paper and if I don't like the property he will refund it. Since it was listed on housing.com and showed the property as premium and verified, I paid the rest amount. He told he will reach property side by 6 evening. So when I tried calling him at 6 he didn't responded to my calls and even blocked me.

Hi Vishal, I am also a victim like you only and was scammed by the same person named Shivanshu Reddy and at a loss of a huge amount. Is there anyway we can get refund bro?

Bro I don't know what could be done. I tweeted about this and even reported that so that this won't happen with anyone else but it seems housing.com is part of this.
