OLX India Complaints & Reviews

In the first week of august 2018, i had put an add on your olx
Site for the above said longines branded wrist watch, and finally
I got a customer from usa, named martin clinton, who agreed
For the amount which i told and kept a condition that my said amount has been deposited in the usa - chase bank. Now it is almost a month now, that according to the terms and condition
Laid, that the moment i despatch the watch by dhl, the shipment number and tracking number be given to them, his i did, but so far i have not received my amount in my account on the contrary they are demanding for international transfer tax, which the
Buyer has to pay, but i told chase bank to minus the tax and send me my balance, which is more than a month, but i have not
Recieved my amount.

This is the same thing happen to me.
His name is vijender kumar and he told that he wants to sell a phone because his brother is not well. The seller was selling mobile for 15000 and wanted me to give 7000 before the dispatch. But fortunately, i searched the google and saw so many cases like this and just blocked the user. Didn't gave him a single penny. But you should be aware of buying such things.

No one can give a mobile for 15k which is originally for 30k and just 2 months used.

I have taken package of 15 ads by paying 999. I was asked to activate the account by olx. After activation i have placed for ads 3 in electronics. This package is not accepting n other and except electronics as i have selected that. U cannot generalised my ads in one particular category as i'm individual. First of all u don't activate the account after payment n secondly i have been restricted to place ads in electronic. This isn't thee kind of service expected from u. Hence u either refund my amount or give me acesse to place any other as.

You can call. Me [protected]. I have explained this to customer support team, but no has solution n argue

Hi Team,

I recently went through an add on olx for one plus 5t.
After negotiating with the seller(which was easy because he was fake) i was convinced to buy at the end.
Now when i called him for payment, he told me that he is an Indian army guy and can send the parcel only through some army courier service(never heard of any).
He explained me as, "Since you want to receive the parcel, you have to pay Rs. 1100 to army parcel center via PayTM and the mobile will be delivered to you within couple of days. Also, you can check the mobile at time of delivery for its state of condition and return back if not satisfied."
Now to build a trust, he has also sent me his aadhar card and military canteen card.

Being a well aware guy of all frauds out there i googled few things and everything was clear that this is all fake.
I obviously did not buy this product and now i am looking a correct platform to expose this guy.(Since this guy is still in my confidennce that i will buy this product)

I request if olx can do something on these kind of problems.

Details of the story:
Seller Name: Manjeet
Date of Incident: 9th Sept to 19th Sept, 2018
Seller Number: [protected]

Points to be remembered while going through this kind of situation:
. Always call the seller, sometimes you can understand few things just by the way of their conversation(In my case, he gave me the name as Manjeet which seems to be a name from Punjab and his accent was Rajasthani for sure).
. If the seller is very easy to negotiate, there is some problem with the product or seller(In my case, he went from 17000 to 11000 for op 5t mobile with six months warranty, which is very cheap in ideal condition)
. Always check every aspect before starting the transaction. (In my case, Logically Indian Army has not adopted PayTM as a mode of payment for parcel, and someone who has the send the parcel should pay for courier)
. Google out anything you find suspicious (I found Indian Army Courier service asking money before sending suspicious)
. Get the details of seller as much as you can (I got aadhar card and military canteen card of this guy. Checked for the status of aadhar card and found it to be of Tripura. He did not provide his PAN card for some reason since it is again traceable on internet)
. Look for a similar case on Internet. (I found many similar cases)
. Most Important of all, try to do the transactions in person. Transacting to a person unknown online is always dangerous.

I purchased a scooter for ₹24500 from Pajwal mysore, at the time he told everything is clear, if any problems of name transfer l will solve like that... after that come to known there is a loan on scooter and the spare parts also changed. Then I made a call to him, even he doesn't pick my call. I have his phone number only.I have attached the chating proof through olx.please help me to return my money..

This happened with me on 11th sep'18,
I was searching on olx regarding a dslr. I'm in jaipur and i got an ad where the seller stated his new unused dslr nikon d7500 for sale.. Just because he got that as a gift and it's for no use to him... These things were told by him over the phone.
I liked the pictures and when i asked for bill copy he sent me a picture also... So i was assured that he has the bill and product. I told him to courier that product to me on my address. So, as per the deal, he said i have to pay half of the amount before the courier and rest amount after the courier when he'll send me the picture of courier bill... And the process went as per the discussion... I made him half payment... He couriers and sent me the bill copy and i paid rest amount. As per him, the product was supposed to deliver in 2 days. But it didn't happen and i tried to track the courier as per the bill number but it's was saying invalid. So, i contacted customer service of blue dart and when i asked for the status of my bill number they said it's an invalid bill number and i need to confirm from the courier office from where the courier was sent. And i shared all these things with the seller and he said he'll go and confirm all the things.. That why this is happening.. But after that, i start founding his reasons as lame excuses. He said the courier office misplaced the item itself and wanted time till monday to find out.. But when i asked on monday he said that they didn't found the item and they are providing compensating amount as per the worth of dslr in your account.. So they will need your details. I asked him that no issues... You should return my money back and whenever i'll get the money then i'll transfer in your account.
But since then the person switch off his mobile and just not he came online and i tried once again and he's not answering.
So, now i clearly understood that he's a fraud and he got my money i. E 14, 500
Below i have attached a collage of 4 pictures in which 3 are the screenshots of paying him the amount.in first i just sent 100₹ to confirm that the amount is going to correct account then i paid half ₹6900 before courier and then remaining 7500₹ afterward. And the fourth pic is the copy he sent me as per the proof of courier. He also deleted the pictures sent to me of the bill & the product. Now i want my money... How can i do that... Please help me out.

Just like i read about the other people who got scammed for an iphone 6s earlier than me, it happened to me almost same way it happened to others too but in my case the seller told me he was in jaisalmer, rajasthan and working as bsf army. He gave all his id and proof so that we get convinced that he is really working in the indian army including aadhar card and army canteen card and some of the pics had 2 guys wearing army uniform posing for the click! How would u call it a bluff when u have so much faith and sympathy for the nation´s army. I already paid him 15k and only after that i came to know what was actually happening with me when they were asking for more money! I should´ve known it before but things were too convincing and i apologise for the curiousness and i just don´t want anyone else to get scammed the same way so i posted this on behalf of so many people who got scammed by the same people namely vikas patel (Fake name) and manjeet singh a. K. A havaldar singh (Seller, obviously not real name.) please help me get my money back because that was my hard earned money saved for buying a phone!

A person named sanjay singh ([protected]) posted a add of a mobile and said that he is working in army and will parcel the item to my address.

I was looking for used one plus 5t mobile on OLX. I came across one ad showing price of 18000 for the same model phone. I contacted him on OLX chat and he gave me his phone number - [protected] and asked me to chat with him on whatsapp. I agreed and started chat with him on whatsapp and he send me phone images with invoice. He introduce himself as army person named Sanjay Singh deployed at Ahmedabad International Airport, for proofs he sent me his various id's including his pan card, adhaar card and army liquer card. He told me he wants to sell his mobile as his friend sent him that mobile and he is using iPhone so he wants to sell it, after few talks, we agreed on 13000rs.forxthe phone. He told me he only takes payment in paytm wallet as he can't accept cash while on duty at the airport. He send me two or three paytm numbers on which I have to transfer the money. He also told me that I first have to pay 2150 rs. For security charges as his phone is deposited at airport canteen for army personnel, only after payment of security charge he will show me the mobile. So after deciding to buy the phone, on 11th of September, I went to Ahmedabad Airport to buy the phone, . I arranged my friend's paytm account as I don't have kyc compliant paytm account and called him after reaching the airport. He told me to pay rs. 2150 as security charges which he will return if I don't like the phone. I paid through friends paytm and send him screenshot of the payment on whatsapp. After receiving the payment, he told me that a plane is lending so he is sending his colleague namely pankaj with phone and pankaj told me that I have to pay another 5000 for the phone then only he will show me phone. After argue with him I send him another 5000rs.via paytm and send him screenahots on whatsapp. He after few moments told me that he didn't received payment and it shows in process and told me to transfer another rs. 5500. I transferred another 5500rs. And send him screen shots on whatsapp. He confirm the payment and told me to wait before gate no. 2 of international airport. I waited for more than half and hour and continously called him and he told me he is coming. After few minutes, he switched off his phone and at that time I came to know that these people cheated. I have all the chat messages and paytm proofs. I request you to register my complain and pls find these people and bring my money back. Thanking you. Samir mansuri.

Greetings,

I lost my phone, and it looks like the thief has hacked into my OLX account (which was logged into in the phone that was stolen) and is sending abusive messages to other people. Please deactivate my account Immediately.

I tried deactivating the account but every time I try logging in again, it comes back up like nothing happened. I am unable to deactivate the account.

Please help ASAP.

If any information is required, please let me know where I can send it, as I cannot share it in this public forum

Hi guys, app crashed on scrolling down (May be pagination issue) and after certain scrolls, click on any product app crashes (Guess getting null pointer exception) please check all these issue. This will dissapoint customer and may even lose of customers. I got this crashes more than 10 times so i guess hotfix will be better solution because app crash occured in main (Home) page n no where else (All categories page). Consider this n kindly fix it. Or else you may lose customers (I am one of them). Thanks
