[Resolved]  Indian Army — fraud on olx from indian army

Address:Gautam Buddh Nagar, Uttar Pradesh, 201305

I Abdul Qadir hereby want to inform you that I have been cheated on OLX, from some fraud INDIAN ARMY guys.
INDIAN ARMY MEN are the people whom we believe and respect deep from our hearts. But this incident broke this trust a lot.

I was looking for a scooter, and saw an AD on 14th June, of an ACTIVA on OLX.
The deal looks interesting so, I called the person named as JITENDRA KUMAR GUPTA. He said he is from INDIAN ARMY and is transferred to Kashmir, so want to sell out his ACTIVA scooter urgently.

I asked to personally see the scooter and have a trial run first. He said he is currently not in town and is in Rajasthan, and assured that the scooter is only 7 month old and in excellent condition. He shared few more photos and RC of the scooter, on WhatsApp.
When asked about his proof IDs, he also send that and his photo, and make us believe that he is from INDIAN ARMY.

Talking to him with few more times, he convince me that he is Definitely and ARMY person and in need to sell it out, and he can deliver the item within 24 hrs to my place, through ARMY parcel service.
With all these convincing words and believing him as an ARMYMAN, I thought to go for this deal. So, the deal was finalize for Rs 33, 000/- .

He then said you just have to transfer Rs 8000 (25 percent of the total amount), as courier charges. And rest can be given once the delivery is done. He also assured that, in case you don’t like the item then all your money will be refunded to you.

He shared an Account number with IFSC CODE pytm0123456, and asked me to transfer the Rs 8000, and share the screenshot of money transfer.
Once I transferred him Rs 8000, he called me that the parcel has been dispatched, and you will be able to receive it on June 18, 2019 evening.

I asked him to share the Tracking number of the parcel, which he refused by saying that it cannot be shared due to security reasons. I believe on him again and decided to wait for the delivery.

Today, on 18th June, I got a call from another number . The person tell his name as JAI KISHAN, said that he is calling from ARMY post service, and there is a parcel for me which will be deliver in half an hour. But before that there is a due amount of Rs 8000 that I need to clear first, then only the item can be delivered.

This surprised me, and I called the JITENDRA again and remind him that I was supposed to pay the rest of the amount after delivery.

He said he was not aware of the new rules, and now the delivery can be done only after paying the due amount.

This sounds fishy, So I decided to do some research, and found there are lots of complaints with similar incidents on OLX in the name of INDIAN ARMY.

Now I got their intention, and I understood that these are fraud guys. I still did not panic and continue my discussion with both, to get more details from them.
On call they continuously want me to convince that either I have to pay Rs 8000 again, or the parcel will be cancelled.

I called JITENDRA, and was able to convince him to share another account (which was again a PAYTM PAYMENT BANK acc), and the IDs of the delivery boy JAI KISHAN.
Their game is disclosed now, but now they are neither sending me the parcel, not returning my money back.

I just have his Adhaar card photo, ID card proof and his paytm Account number.
I just hope that you will help me to come out of this problem. Please help so that I can get my hard earned money back to me because its really a big matter for a normal guy.

I'll be waiting for your reply.

Thanks a lot for your help.
