Address: Rajpura

Have posted and made payment as per your invoice no. Olxini[protected] dated 27/06/2020. But regretfully, the ad is not yet active.

Moreover, whenever trying to post a new and to make it featured ad, i do not see the option for upgrade ad option in my dashboard, this makes me very difficult to make my ad features. Finding very difficult to work with your given features,...

        Its a chain of frauds they will make you fool after getting first payment from you then they will give you fake letter then another person will also ask for money after then he will give you another fake letter and that is the person who again charge you the money. So beware of these goons.

        Let us all file the case against them to stop this loot.

        They have more then 100 ads on olx.

              Address: Gwalior (as per the seller)

              This complaint is from july 2018 and i know its too late now to submit this but shrikant cisf was selling me samsung galaxy s9 and i he told me to pay some token amount and then he would dispatch the parcel from gwalior and i started paying him and i think i must be the first target to give him an amount of 23000rs without recieving the parcel as i was eagerly waiting for the cellphone and wanted to gift it to my brother.
              I apologize that the thing i've done is extremely wrong i should've complained it when all of this happened but i was afraid of doing so.
              Can you help me now?

                    The olx india now is flooded with fraudsters and scammers, especially recently on the covid-19 time, and customers get duped 1000% more than normal days, and the olx support system now running like a worst mechanism ever.

                    They will never take any action even if we sent them a tons of proofs on scammers/frauds, they never read it, just send an text message too.

                    If we send any issue regarding account creation (Purely technical) they will send as a text saying "go and file fir", hence more and more scammers are now finds olx as a wealthy catch!!!

                    So vever expect any positive support from them, even if you send them 100 times the complaints on fraud/scammers they will just reply u something else and no action will be taken by them.

                    So its better to keep away from olx india now or until the support system comes in an effective way.

                            Website: olx.in

                            I have created my olx account 3 days ago and posted a laptop ad. Suddenly i got a email that i have a chat. I just go to chat and replied to them and then when the very next day when i tried to open my olx account i was unable to open it. I checked that it is shown your account is banned

                            I mailed support then they replied me you have done something that doesn't comply with our terms of service. I don't understand what i have done?

                            Can you guys just elaborate the cause. Even i believe that posting laptop ad for selling cannot violate their compliance

                            I have checked this on google that many of people have reported that olx is suspending user account with no cause

                                Sub: Online Fraud Victim of OLX site

                                Respected Sir,
                                I have purchased a speaker system ( Bose Companion 50) through the online site OLX ( www.olx.com) on 06-06.2020 from a person named Isampalli Kumari . I have transferred money from my union bank account bearing number ([protected]) Rs.11, 140 to her bank account on the same day promising that will courier the product within the day itself. After reaching the money to her bank account he blocked my phone & WhatsApp account. I tried to contact him through another phone number & he also blocked all my numbers.

                                I have seen multiple advertisement of the same product in the OLX by the same person. His intention is cheat every one by taking cash. He is exact online fraud. I made myself an enquiry with the Kotak Mahindra Bank, then I can know that transaction of the particular Account is too high. That means he is cheating so many persons by the same tricks. So I humbly request you to take it as my complaint and do the favour to get back my money.

                                The money I transferred to the Account:
                                Amount: 11, 140l- (eleven thousand one hundred & forty only)
                                Bank: Kotak Mahindra Bank (IFSC KKBK0007840)
                                Name: Isampalli Kumari
                                Branch: Bhanugudi Centre.

                                Iam here by attaching pictures & details of the person Isampalli: -
                                Adhar card Number of the person:[protected]
                                Contact number of the person: [protected]

                                Thanking You,
