[Resolved]  Municipal Corporation Of Delhi — Cheating, Impersonation of government official, fraud

Address:

South Delhi, Delhi

On 11th December, we were approached at our residence by a person claiming to be an MCD official by the name of Dalip Kumar. He claimed that there was a MCD inspection scheduled for the next morning, Dec. 12th 2011 and that some Malba lying in front of our house had to be cleared before then to avoid a huge fine. He claimed that the MCD could have it removed for a charge of Rs. 600/- before the inspection. He showed me an Id and gave me his telephone number as [protected]. I confirmed the number was correct and, since I would be at work in the morning, the person insisted I pa him right away to avoid a huge fine later. I agreed and handed over Rs. 600 to the person but till today the Malba has not been removed and repeated calls to the number above are answered by a person who claims that Dalip Kumar is not well but will have the work done. It seems obvious that I have been cheated by someone impersonating a MCD official. The telephone number is genuine so I request that appropriate action be taken at the earliest as I do not know how many other unsuspecting people ahve been cheated by this person.
