[Resolved]  Videocon D2H — Fraud website wwwid2hvideocon.com cheated us

Address:

Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh

Sir,

i purchased videocon d2h lcd in their Paisa Vasool offer on 31.0510 from their videocon - "next showroom" in Gomti Nagar Lucknow. I received a SMS on 01.06.10 from the site [url]www.d2hvideocon.com[/url] on my mobile number which i had registered on their 'next showroom' on buying the lcd tv stating that

"you have win a videocon set top box with dvd in our lucky draw and you have to deposit Rs.440 i.e the tax amount only and you will get this offer totally free.

The same day in the evening i again went to the 'next showroom' enquiring about this offer and even showed the SMS to the representatives present there.. The representatives in the showroom said that they donot know about such an offer this offer could be directly sent to you by the company as your registered details are already sent to the company. ( Instead they should have warned us against any such offer and enquired direclty from the company about any such offer.)

On 02.06.10 i again received another SMS stating the details which is as follows ( i had downloaded the detais from that site)

On receiving this we did exactly what was being directed to us and deposited the sum and faxed the receipt to Mr Kishan Sahoo at his SBI A/C Number: [protected] faxed the report to Fax Number[protected].

Since then i have not received any initimation from the said [url]www.d2hvideocon.com[/url] site.

i even went the "next showroom" in Gomti Nagar Lucknow. They contacted to videocon d2h company on their toll free number to some executive ( which they should have done on my first visited enquiry earlier).
The executive on the toll free number informed us that their is no such offer given by the company and this could be a fraud.

Now what should i do as remedy for this because i have already spent Rs 440 + Rs 35 ( fax amount) +time + energy + lost of faith in the videocon company

yours
