N the courier charge i hav to bear as it is a cod...1050 advance i have to pay n remaining 11450 on delivery... I paid 1050... After paying only i realised that the bill he has sent me belongs from vishakapatnam n he is staying n bihar patna... N his number is from u. P... N then the so called overnite courier guy (Sanju) cald me stating that my courier has arrived in my city... I need to transfer 4000 rs... N then they will do cod... Now i was 100% sure ki it is totally fraud in the name of indian army... This guys should be punished., cheating in the name of army... There should be a message to community from the army side to be aware about this type of fraud... I was lucky that i lost only 1000rs... I saw online people had transferred money in many thousands to these guys doing these fraud.

                    I have posted an add about selling my phone. I got a call from a person called manjith, he said he will buy the mobile and asked me to send my location. Then he sent me a QR code said that it is a merchant account.he asked me to scan that code and i scanned the code it shown 'debited to' my account, So l entered my upi code and then I got credited from my account. Then he again called and asked me to scan again so that I will get refunded but I didn't do that. Then he again called me to do the same. I shouted on him then he cut the call.

                      Sir, i saw a advertisement on olx of oppo f11 pro. But i get cheated by paying 7500 in advance and he did not delivered my parcel.

                      I offered him 7500 on olx. He said that i am indian army personale and away from your location send me 1050 for curiour of your phone. First i refused but somehow by showing photo and id he convinced me to pay. After that he said to pay 6500 in evening and again in hassel i got trapped in his words. And did same mistake by paying 6500. After that he refused to his words and not returning my money worth around 7500 rupees.
