MagicBricks — misguided online users to fetch more money - fraud campaign

Magicbricks runs an online campaign that offers handsome discounts immediately after user submits the property details.
On 11th nov 2017, as soon as i posted the property ad for sale, i got an offer page. As per the offer, i got 50% of discount on either silver, gold or titanium package (Only 3 paid options were displayed). I paid rs.3960/- and for titanium package. Within an hours time, i got a call from magicbricks support representative saying that the selected package is not applicable to the type of property submitted. Then he offered me super titanium which costed more than double i paid. He claimed that since i have paid part of the money, only remaining has to be paid before we activate super titanium.

This is how they extract money from customers. They first give you an offer and ask to pay more later otherwise your money is gone. This is purely a case of cheating. I have also recorded few of the calls i have got. Everytime they expect me to repeat the whoe incident

Since i could not afford the amount for super titanium, i asked for the refund procedure. He said the refund will be given in 2 to 3 days after you sned an email to [protected]@magicbricks.com (Case no: 976077). I immediately sent an email to support and requested for the refund. But, since then i am getting call every other day and the representatives from magicbricks tries to convince me to use the package. Once i use the package the refund will get cancelled and hence they are trying to pursue me to use the package.

Today, 5th dec, 2017, i got a call (I have recorded) where representative as asked me for otp that got generated. He logged-in to my account and i am not sure what he might have done. But i clearly called out in the conversation that "i do not want to use package, as i have asked for refund".
