Respected sir/mam,
I am a victim of an olx fraud who did cheat on me of rs 25, 699 / -. I was buying an old iphone 8 from a seller named bablu kumar by olx. He pretended himself to be an army man and sent me some of his id's and photos in order to gain my belief. Then, he asked me to give rs 4, 000 / - in advance for courier charges which i transferred through my gpay on 4th july. Later, on next day the courier man had called me and asked me to transfer more money saying that it is his courier company's insurance policy which is mandatory to pay for all the receivers before receiving the parcel.in the same way he kept giving me reasons to transfer more money and i kept believing on him blindly thinking that he is from indian army and i transferred rs 21, 699 / - further into that fraudster's account. So, i transferred a total of rs 25, 699 / - (I. E. 4, 000 through my gpay and 21, 699 through my friend's account by upi transfer). After transferring a total of rs 25, 699 / - into his account, he refused to give me the phone and blocked me from everywhere.in this way he cheated on me of rs 25, 699 / -.
It is a group of many people who are constantly posting new ads on olx with different id's to cheat innocent people. They pretend themselves to be army man and show some id's and photos of army man so that people could easily believe them. These fraudsters need to be caught soon as they are still active on olx and they are defaming the name of our indian army.
After this i had registered my complaint on olx whose complaint no. Is 8113791. The olx customer care was saying that they will provide every information to police regarding that fraud person e. G. Ip adress, location, etc.
It is my humble request to please help me in getting my money back as it is a very big amount of money. I will be highly obliged to you.
Thank you!
