[Resolved]  Indian Army Transport Parcel Department — scooter fraud, product not received

Address:devanahalli, Bangalore
Website:www.olx.in

Scooter details: ka04jn4531
Yellow colour honda dio
Owner: some army personnel
This was the product that i wanted to purchase and when i got interested in it, it was showing 10, 000 km driven and rs 15, 000 price. I contacted him and he said that he's an army personnel who wants to sell his scooter because he's shifting somewhere else.
During further conversations he said that i need to pay the delivery charges otherwise the scooter wont be allowed to leave the army camp and that amount will be deducted while paying the complete price of the scooter when it get's delivered.
I thought maybe there are rules in army like that and i paid delivery charge of rs. 2120 and then he said that he'll be sending the scooter by 3.30 pm
At 3:30 pm i received a call again from him and he said that the documents are transferred to my name and i need to pay the amount for insurance rs 6999. I said that's not possible right now, either you show me transferred documents or deliver the vehicle, he said the officer won't let the scooter go. After having a long talk he said that you wont be getting any of your money back.

If i can get the money back with help of consumer forums that's good but at least if people see this and stay away from frauds like this, that would compensate my loss.

Go to olx and go to scooters. There just search for dio and you'll get many ads for this same scooter by the number mentioned above.

Please do something. I'm a student and have paid my college pocket money for this scam and also they have my adhaar card and dl. I don't know if they can use it in some bad way

Take necessary actions against these people.

I'm sharing the rc, scooter pics and the senior's pic he mentioned and the account detail i tranferred my money to.
