Hello Team
I saw the facebook adds for bike sale + contact number so based on that I messaged through Whatsapp for quoting the final price of the bike and he replied with final price Rs. 30, 000/ so I asked him to share his location where he is staying to see the bike, so he told me to call so called him immediately to inquire about the bike as he mentioned that he is working in Indian Army near to Bangalore International Airport so you can't come and see and collect the bike as per Army policy so we will deliver the bike to your residential address so he asked me to share the address + ID proof to whom to transfer the bike so I have shared the ID proof as Adhaar with Passing state KA36, and then later he shared few details about Indian Army Postal Receipt, Bike loading videos, ID proof+photo and his adhaar card name of "Manish Kumar" Adhaar #[protected] and also he told me to transfer Rs 1, 100 as shipping charges.
Also, he mentioned bike will be delivered by 2-3PM IST, later some point of time afternoon around 3-4PM one person called me to transfer the money to release the bike from Army compus Rs 7, 150/- with the same UPI scan which he shared earlier, I was told him why i should pay that much amount without delivering the bike, he told me due to some GPS issue not able to release the bike so that you have to pay Rs 7, 150 then due to limitation of I couldn't transferred full amount at a time so I transfer Rs 2000/- and Rs 5150, then again they called a few minutes later asked me to transfer full amount at a time Rs7, 150 then only GPS issue resolve, I transferred it again but again few minutes later they want me to transfer Rs 11, 150/- then only they can delivered the bike otherwise not. by that time I realized that they are making a big fraud so I started blaming to them nicely, I told them I'm going to give police compliant.
Actually, I was at school for my children orientation program then finished and drop off my children at home and right after contact to my nearest friend explained everything what happened since morning my friend took their number from me and called them they responded saying that need to transfer money then only bike will be delivered so my friend got angry and scold them nicely, but they were not bothering about anything.
After this incident next day called me said we will return the money whatever I transferred, shared with his UPI Bharatpay scanner to scan it so I did not convinced i know they were trying to fraud some additional money from me, so i told them transfer directly to my Paytm number as I can't scan it so he immediately delete the shared UPI scanner in whatsapp, then he was keeping on message me on whatsapp saying that they will raise the complete against to me as I ignored to purchase the bike and asked refund then shared some audio clips + crime officer's images by saying that we are going to give compliant against on me only, by that time I got frustrated so I blocked his contact number + Whatsapp.
