A person posted an Ad on olx with the name of an Army officer, G vinod kumar posted in chennai, who’s been transferred to New Delhi, thus selling all his household furniture and electronics at low prices. Then he asked for the advance payment of 20 percent through online payment and rest of the amount to be paid when the products get delivered to my address through army officers. He even sent me the pictures of Army card, Aadhar card, etc to make it look harder to be fraud. He given another Google pay number named rajat kumar and told he is a courier officer in Indian army pallavaram, Chennai. He asked to pay 3200 but I payed 2000.
Then the delivery day came, here the person, Pawan kumar talking as the delivery boy. asked me to pay GST of Rs5000+500 Then he starts sharing truck photos with loaded goods . And says truck is waiting for delivery . Please pay the GST amount. Then I doubted and asked counterquestions like GST percent and GST number. He gives some fake ids that I verified with GST site and I confirmed it's a fake activity. But again he sended GST number of Indian airport authority. I asked truck photos with date and number plates he shared with me. And started asking payment. Thereafter he asked payment confirmation. I said I'm not going to share further. Then he start deleting all the photos and WhatsApp chats. I don't know how they delete downloaded photos .
Now my money is stuck there. The total amount is Rs.2000. I’m attaching all the proofs and screenshots below.
Somehow these fraudsters are making a normal person disbelief the Indian Army.
Please consider my complaint.
Please save honourable Indian army name before it's get spoil by some of this frauder persons
