Army — fraud in the name of indian army

I received a call from this number today [protected] stating that they are from indian army. I had posted some clothing material few weeks ago for sale on my facebook profile this man stating himself as parimal lal from haryana who is posted in jamnagar contacted me through facebook. He wanted to purchase that 5 pieces from me costing 1700 each total amount would stand to 8500. This man was so much in hurry to make payment which was even not ordered and booked from my end. He repeatedly kept on asking me total amount to be paid and my google pay number. He then mentioned that indian army provides them 25% cash back on there shopping card only when paid through there army swipe machine. He then said he would send some bar code to me for rs 5 transaction and if that goes through, he will pay me the balance. I agreed to this. Later he sent me a bar code as said and named as indian army of rs 5. But he was very much in rush and wanted me to open my gp account and scan that bar code. This act of his made me suspicious and i thought to do my own research on this type of payment gateway. Later on after my few research i realised that they are fraud and they debit double the amount from your account rather than crediting. I also read few similar cases as of mine in google and other websites. God was forbidden on me that i did not do what he wanted me to do and listened to my instinct. Later when i checked his chat i could see that he delete the bar code that he had send me. Which made me more suspicious and i immediately blocked him from all the places he could contact me. Even true caller reported this number as fraud. I was lucky enough to not get into any financial loss but this was very convincing from there end and you could just not suspect any fraud in the manner they speak to you. Please be aware of such people and such type of calls when you are into any online selling business.

Report this and call this out as much as it is possible so that it reaches to maximum people and they could save themselves from such fraudsters.

As i have been working in this type of fraud department from last few years so could relate to it.
Please do not get convinced by them at all. Trust me it was very very powerful from there end.
