[Resolved]  Olx — fraudstar as an defence personnel on olx

Website:www.olx.in

On 19 april, i gave an advertisement for selling my desktop. Just a minute after i received a call from jora singh - [protected]. He was saying that he was interested in buying it & asked me if i have any online payment method & also told me to mark as sold. He said that he had posting in pulwama as an army personnel so that's why he would buy it later but he would pay in advance & i agreed. He sent some id proofs on my whatsapp & told to send my id proofs & afterthat i send my aadhar card & phonpe upi id (I don't know whether i did wrong or not to share my details to unknown) later he called me to check some payment links sms that he had sent on my phone. He told to open the link to receive the advance. But everytimes the payment transactions got failed. Thanks to god for the transactions being failed. The stubborn person was saying me to try again because the links were from lic (He was saying that phonpe won't work from the place where he was located). Later i bored to accept his links as it was failing each times & told him to buy it from cash from my home and ended his call. Because i know that upi pin is not required to receive payment which i tried. After some time i realized that the person was fraud & i deleted the ad. He tried to cheat me but couldn't. I saw about those defence personnel scams in olx. So please take legal actions against the culprit.
