Indian Bank — Online Transfer Fraud

I had posted some furniture for sale on OLX for INR 6000 and a person NOOR ALAM called to buy. He took my Indian Bank details first. And later refused to pay on the bank details.

He offered to pay me over PhonePe and I had never used
this app, he insisted to download and he would make the transfer
immediately. He said since its a merchant account he cannot transfer
directly and I should scan the QR code. First, he made a QR code for Re.1 and I got a debit of Re.1 and immediately followed by Rs.2 credit. He convinced me that if I scan for INR 2000, I will get a debit of INR2000 and immediately a credit of INR 4000. But I did not get a credit of INR 4000.

Instead, he insisted to scan another QR code for INR4000 so I can get a full credit of INR12, 000. I refused and he deleted all the Whatsapp messages. I have raised complaint with the Cyber Cell at HDFC and blocked my
account too.

He has my Indian Bank Account details and I am afraid he may misuse this account details. Also I want to be reassured that he cannot do anything to my Indian Bank Account.

I want this person tracked down so he does not make more fraud with others.
