[Resolved]  Olx — Cheated by an army person

Address:Ghaziabad
Website:Olx

I have been cheated with 10, 540 Rupees
I saw a olx ad today of phone vivo s1 pro and he told his name anil mehta phone number ([protected])and gave me deal of 5k and said that he was selling just because an army person can't keep 2 phones in office that's why he is selling in low price and after that he asked me for courrier named overnite service of army and asked me for 540 delivery charges. I asked why so much delivery charge he said government parcel h. And he said I will get it by 5 pm. He send me photos of ID aadhar and army people. And at 4.30 pm I got another call([protected]) he asked me for verification money 4998 and after that he said I paid him in wrong manner I should pay him as (3799+1200) . I asked why? He started threatening me with name of army"10 minute m fir kradunga paredhan krrkha h government parcel h mzak nhi ". I paid him again and after that I received call from a fraud army senior he asked me for 12999 rupees because I did mistake by paying in wrong manner. I said to him I will not pay now. Then he replied u will not get phone and started abusing me with name of army he said - " fir krake bhejta hu 10 minutes m" I said bhejde. I didn't get any photo after that. It was literally bad for army reputation and we can't trust any army guy because I just saw it's not just me there are thousands of cases. It's a big group or gang they should be in jail.
And our money should be refunded otherwise it's bad for army reputation.
10540 is a huge amount. Please help!!
