[Resolved]  Olx — army fraud case

Address:1005, Shubhangan Society, tal mulshi, Pirangut, pune, Pune, Maharashtra, 412115
Website:www.olx.in

I saw an ad on OLX about Activa 4g. The price showed was 28999, I bargained and he agreed to give it in 22000. He asked for the advance money of 5500 for courier charges. Before giving money I asked some identity proofs of him he had given his Pan Card photo, Adhaar card, and registration Certificate. I paid him an amount of 5500. He has given me the receipt of the courier. He said that it will be delivered to your house by the army transport. Then the courier person asked for the half payment and I denied paying him the amount. Now he is arguing and not sending my money back. I have all the relevant document of him.
He said that he is from the Indian Army with 9th batallion.
Posted in Nashik and he also referred the head of Army Post office. There was also a guy who called me as a delivery guy. So please help me to sort this complaint, as it was my scholarship money given to me in terms of Financial problem...Please do help me.
