    I devesh pandey has posted an advertisement on olx app for my house to be given on rent. Yesterday i received a call from a man referring himself as sanjay singh, an indian army officer with regard to the advertisement. He said that he has been transferred to jhansi and is looking for a house to relocate his family. I asked him to send his identity card for verification so he sent me his aadhar card, pan card, army ration card and a photograph which i believe is also fake. He said he shall deposit the entire rent and one month security amount in my account immediately, for which he asked for my upi id. He then said that army doesn't allow account to account transfer and will have to send it throyigh a merchant portal. He said that since the amount is big so he will have to do transaction in parts and asked me to send him ₹5000 instead saying that it works that way in army and he will transfer the amount after he receive the payment from my end. I transferred ₹5000 and ₹2000 in two transactions. When i did not recieve the money i become suspicious and searched the internet with his name and i found out that he has cheated many people in a similar manner. I have been cheated of ₹7000. Kindly take strict action against this person and return my hard earned money. I made the payment through gpay and paytm respectively.

            Sir,
            My name is richard masih, i got an add in olx for a scooty. After consultation with the seller mr badri prasad gangrade, he asked me to send some advance amount. I transferred an amount of rs. 7270.00 through paytm on 8th june 2020 for the same in two transaction. After that he told me that the scooty is being send by courier and he told me to transfer rc transfer fee and rest amount to one amit kumar. And i transferred rs. 19930.00 through google pay in three transaction on 9th june 2020. But he was insisting for more money because of late payment charge. So i searched his name in google and found that he had done the same fraud in same way as he has done to me in june 2019 to one mr aditya kumar. After that i called mr badri prasad and mr amit kumar, but they are not picking up the phone. [protected] is the number of mr amit kumar and [protected] is the number of mr badri prasad. I am attaching all the details of transactions in the attachment. So please help me to get back my money. My mail id is: masih. [protected]@gmail.com. Mobile: [protected]

                    A fraud person from bangalore/delhi is cheating olx customers since year 2018. This person from bangalore (Or delhi) using 1000+ mobile numbers to scam people, he had scammed 500+ olx users till now.

                    When any one reports the same to olx and when his account is blocked by olx, he again re-registers on olx using another number. He is using 8-12 profiles with 18-22 listings on olx at a same time.

                    This person will not share his mobile number via olx chat, he will ask you to "send mobile number" or "share your number"

                    We cant catch him by cybercell as he is using 1000+ mobile numbers. May be he using any mobile number generator/sim duplicator ir any other h/w setup to generate mobile numbers.

                    Olx will block these person few times, and their customer support system is very poor especially for any scamming /cheating incidents. They even ask you to fir fir with police first & then contact olx with fir copy for support!!!

                    So please keep away from any person asking to do icloud via online /offline etc (Whether its by hacking/bypassing/jailbreaking...), only give orders to your near person with face to face job.

                    Even if they say "payment after (Its just a gimmick to make u feel he is genuine, but not at all!! Beaware)!!.

                    They will also spoil your imei for ever (As blacklisted/fraud/stolen etc).

                    At a time above said person is active with 8-10 profiles with 20-22 listings on olx and please keep away from him always!!!

                    Olx india will not help you and thier support system is worst, they will only call you to make payments or to buy new sellers packages!!!

                    Its still a mystery that how above person using 1000+ indian mobile numbers for scamming!!!. He creates 10-12 olx accounts within few minutes, if in any case (Few cases) his account was blocked by olx..!!!

                    now its better to keep away from OLX as a seller or as a buyer, their support system is worst, and they supports the scammers and frauds. There is no mechanism internally to block or detect previously suspended frauds, and they always directs as to police to file FIR, rather than filing FIR, its better to close the OLX India Services !!!

                    Hundreds of Olx users got scammed every day and where 90% of scammers are multiple suspended sellers who re re-registers on olx 1000+ times. Olx must make a way to find these by asking any identification method, else more and more serial scammers will continue to fool innocent customers and Olx team will never support the victoms and only say some pre defined texts, and nothing happens !!!

                                I saw an add of maruti alto posted on 1 june under the name of prakash chand. I contacted the seller and the deal was done of 55, 000 rupees. He told himself to be a army person having duty at gaggal airport. He sent all his documents of vehicle registeration. He asked for 5120 for registeration and we paid him and then next day he asked for 11, 500 for gst installation and after all pressure from him we gave him and then next day of delievery he asked for 18000 for gst security. Then i was sure he was a fraud.. Please kindly refund my money.
