[Resolved]  Olx India — Bike seller is asking for more money despite the fact i had paid the entire amount for the bike + shipment.

Dear Sir/Madam, I noted a seller from OLX who had put up an offer for a bicycle (Cannondale Scalpel 29er) i was interested in buying. On seeing this i contacted the seller (BikeTech Sportsbikes, Bangalore). After agreeing for an amount of INR 28000/- he confirmed that the bicycle would be shipped to Kerala as soon as he receives the payment. On 30th July I agreed with the purchase and proceeded with a payment of INR 28, 000/-. He confirmed that he had received the payment the next day. Follwoing this on 1st of August after an exhaustive couple of days, the supposed sellers "secretary" contacted me and sent me a copy of the shipment details. However they did not give me any details on the tracking number, but only the cargo serial number. Later the same day I received another email containing the invoice from the seller. However to my surprise, there were 3 other bicycles along with the one i had ordered with a total amounting to INR 1, 82, 800/-. I contacted them again and to my surprise they said since the items have already been shipped and I pay them an additional INR 1, 54, 800/- which the "secretary" somehow "convinced" the "management" to bring down the amount to INR 38, 800/- Im starting to doubt this is an online scam, trying to cheat people out of their money. They are causing me further stress by pressurising me to pay the Rs38000/- Kindly pay heed to this.Im honestly starting to believe this is some sort of internet scam and they are trying to loot me of my hard earned money. Please do the needful and arrive at a favourable judgement. I dont anymore people to get duped out of their money by people who are pretending to be genuine sellers.
