The matter was:-
I was planning to buy 2nd hand scooty, and on 23rd Feb'2019 olx i saw an add "honda activa model 2018 4g" at noida location.
I start chat with that olx user and he give me his contact number
+91- [protected] and said he is in agra cant with indian army (He pretends to be an indian army soldier) and want to sell his scooty on immediate basis as he is getting transferred to ranchi that's why selling his scooty at such low cost (33k quoted), he shared me some scooty pics along with rc image, id proof of one person that is vikash patel (Enclosed all)
He told me to share my address so that he can deliver the scooty through postal delivery by their army camp.
I trusted him as he seems to be so confident in talking and acting as a army person. He told me to transfer the whole amount to the credentials so that he can share the postal delivery slip.
But i refused that whole amount can't be transferred without adding beneficiary and i transferred rs 10000 to him on above account.
Thereafter today morning one another person calls me (Acting like delivery person from agra army camp mob - +91-[protected]) and said we arrived at delhi location, and said no mail has been received to him from post office, he said clear the rest amount so that he got mail and deliver the scooty.
Then i refused and got that they are the gang of frauds.
Their credentials provided are as follows :
Acc no[protected]
Ifsc code - pytm0123456
I requested sbi as well on mail to kindly help me to get that amount reverse into my account.
I have seen thousands of same type complaints today on consumer complaint portal and i was shocked to how many they have cheated.
I am unable to understand why these cheaters are still in operations even after lot of complaints.
Big big question mark.
Request authorities to kindly take serious and hard actions against these looterey gang so that it creates a message to other cyber frauds or other frauds.
Sabse important to ye hai ki maine OLX pe iski written complaint kar di along with all the evidences . Uske bad b kisi aur k sath Same scooty number pe fraud hua.
INDIAN ARMY se Request hai Ki aap hi kuch action le inn logo k upar, Jo lootere indian army k naam pe seedhe saadhe logo ko loot rahe hai.
Ye log deemak h jo apne hi desh me rehke, apno ko hi dhokha de rhe hai.
Aap consumer complaints pe dekh lijiye kitne logo ko ye daily shikaar bana rhe h aur lakho loot rhe h.
OLX abhi tak kuch nahi kar paya.
OLX bika hua h, Mila hua h inn choro k sath, ye confirmed h
Photos mere iske pehle wale post me hai attached, OLx ko likha tha.
