This is a telegram channel named kolkata custom shop which keeps coming with special offers on newly launched electronic mobiles and other gadgets at dirt cheap prices. The modus operandi is like such - coming up with a message on telegram channel on today's special offer where the offer is for new mobile phones @ rs.3000/- which costs around rs.100000 or more in open market, then few screen shots on people who made the payments. And screenshots of delivery tracking links. Before the offer, they post screenshots and videos of people receiving the product, so that people trust them. This channel operates using name of mr. Ajoy gopal sarkar, asst. Commissioner of customs. There are 6900 subscribers to the channel. Every alternate day the channel comes with offer and say that the offer is available only for first 10 members. That means disclosed rs. 30000 of income. Unaccountable income may be more than that.
I lost rs.3000/- to such scam. Unfortunately, saw various threads about these scams only when i did not receive my courier. It is a clear cut fraud which should be informed to people. If people do not fall for them, these will automatically be curtailed.
