[Resolved]  Indian Army — victim fraud via olx pretend to be indian army

Address:telangana

I saw an advertisement on olx yesterday. A person who identified himself as mushkam naveen and claimed to be from the indian army had listed a 2010- santro for just rs 40, 000. We spoke over the phone during which he inspired trust by sending me pictures of his identification document. Then he demanded rs 2100 to ship the motorcycle from shamshabad to my location. I provided him my id proof of address than after 5 mins he send me the courier bill. And told me your car is ready to ship in 10 mins. Than again he called me and asked me to transfer 5500 for some gps charges which i have to pay for indian army services which they will return once i get the car. To gain my trust he talked to me on whatsapp video call for 10 seconds just to show me that he is on duty and he was wearing the army dress.
Later i realized he is a fraud. Soon i reported fraudulant at olx and they deleted his ad. His number is still active[protected].
I know i will not get my money back but atleast by your immediate action we can stop him from cheating others.
Request to take immediate action on such types of fraud peoples as they are spoiling the image of army professionals.
