On the olx app or on the olx site, its not easy to delete. Developers and people working at olx are busy sucking some other company's balls to make # apps like this. # olx, don't trust this site, its full of chutiyas and randi-bazz people.
Try deleting an add on olx app, there is just no simple way... Is this how these # are gonna design apps?

Dear Sir:
Sir, on Sept. 11 I was contacted by a person named Manjit Singh who claims to be an army officer in Gujarat and he wanted to sell his IPhone X. He contacted me through an ad I had placed on OLX
I sent several payments via Paytm amounting Rs.34, 150 and he fooled me and did not send the phone. He also kept calling the next asking for more money.
Also these persons from the Overnite Courier service and asking money.
I am sending you the proof of payments I made with Paytm and pictures.
Sir, please help me with this. I beg you to investigate this and make them return the money they have stolen from me.
Please help me, Sir. Hoping for your kind assistance.

He said i’m a army officer working in hyderabad airport nd he requested me to pay 10, 000/- by paytm bcoz he required money urgently to give someone. I have paid him 10, 000/- as advance after seeing his i’d cards n delivery slips i was believed n major thing wat i thought he was army officer right so... I have believed him n sent 10, 000/- by phone pe bcoz i was not using paytm dat i was informed him. N he given bank account no to transfer d money. But the account holder name was aamir punjab national bank. N i called back him n he said dat ur parcel will b arrived in 24 hours but it’s been a 2 days i didn’t receive anything n atlast i came to know i have been cheated with d item which he had advertised in olx.in

Dear sir

I would like to mention that the subject mention olx profile member has posted and advertising my property on selling of aluminum door partitioning / false ceiling which was already sold to me recently. This member has posted 3 days (05th or 06.09.18) back on the same without my knowledge. Hence i would seek your support and take suitable /necessary action against them.

I'm also attaching my payment net transfer details for your reference and their olx snap shot details.

I spoke to the profile member on 09.09.18 @ 9.20 am and warned about the consequences and informed them i'm going to report this to olx and mentioned i can take legal action against them. Now i tried to report the same in the olx advertisement but they had cleverly removed their selling ad.

In view of the above said fact i'm worried and afraid that they will login with some other olx profile and create mental tension to me.

Looking forward for a complete support in this regard from olx. We need a confirmation from your end that they had created & posted selling our property in your olx website. This will facilitate us to lodge legal complaint against them. Mattermost urgent

Thanking you

I saw an ad on olx in indore and then contacted himfor the details, he told me that he's an army officer posted in ujjain. Nd he sended all his id's and photos of mobile and bill so i thought it's genuine. Later he told me pay some amount as insurance of parcel coming through overnite express limited courier. So i paid then the delivery boy calls me nd asked to pay the full amount of phone as security. He said he will get a confirmation msg from his head office then he will deliver the phone. Nd after taking that too they told i have charged for penalty for late delivery acceptance. So i asked them to return my money so he told me to pay half of the penalty amount. It's a kind request dnt ever do the mistakes which i did. Nd please if anyone can help me in this matter so please provide some guidance.

If am interested to buy phone from him he will give me by hand... He gave his id photo... And pictures of photo... I agreed to buy... But he said phone is of army canteen so have pay him advance... I believed as he is from army... I gave money but he is not receiving calls now... So at the i decided to file complain.. I filled it... But also searched for special site of page to complain about army ppl...https://www.consumercomplaints.in/indian-army-b111624...When i went this site i really got shocked because lots of complaints were there for this man jai kishan and his other friends also for same reason... Fraud of iphone on olx by army man... I want olx to take some strict action about it... We are purchasing products from olx because we trusted​ the site... But if you allowing this kind of fraud on site then olx is also fraud for me

Hello there,

I posted an ad in olx (Buying and selling app for used products)
-product - tissot wrist watch, which cost around 35k inr
I was approached by a unknown person on 7 sep 2018 and offered a reasonable price and was mutually agreed by the both the parties to sell/buy the watch.

Later, he asked to ship the item to usa and asked for the bank account information to make the payment. (I was aware that this could be fraud, but just to get to root cause of this, provided the bank information and ifsc code, and agreed to ship the item to usa only if the payment is received first), and he said payment will be made next day and.

Next day: attached screenshot
I received an email in my spam folder, which said he has already made the payment from his end and it is in pending status and will only be able to release the payment once the item (Wrist watch) shipment receipt is provided to him, as it was needed by bank.

Now, it was proved that he is a fraudster.

Jotting the key points:
Phone number : +[protected]
Name : mark a milley
-claimed himself to be us military officer.
- his whatsapp dp is attached
_ when i told him his country coe is of nigeria, he said he is in usa and number keeps routing (It's gimmick)

Eventually, i told him that he got to know he is a fraud and will contact police, in return, he started threatening and say's he has got all my information and will put me behind the bar (Jail).

I know this is not the first time this kind of fraudulent activity has happened in olx (After looking in google), links attached:

However, i would request forum to have this people blocked. I understand it is our own (Indian citizen) responsibility as well to deal and understand the people with whom we are having transaction with.

Please note, i am not bad mouthing olx here in any means, it is just a source like any other buy/sell website/app, but my recommendation is to have a some sort of phone/ email verification to ensure this kind of fraudulent activity doesn't happen in india.

If people are educated/aware about these scammers, they could be looted easily, these people should be behind bars.

I know there are thousands of complaints this sort of, however, i am doing my bit what i could do.

Thank you.
Responsible indian citizen!

I am using olx account from 3-4 years. When i have tried to contact with sellers, olx has banned my account.

I have recharged my account with 999/- but they banned my account and they are not refunding my amount.

Why are you blocking our account.

When i called your customer support, they don't have any right answer regarding this topic. They always says that you have violated policy of olx.

What the # services of olx is this.

Please shut down your company.

Mene olx pe add dekha tha.. Muzhe apple mac purches karana tha.. Add me deler ka contact number tha-[protected]/[protected]/[protected]... Usne muzhe contact karne ke liye bola tha..

He not recived my call and not reply any message.

Once i found an ad of vivo v9 sold by a person in disguise of indian army. Initially he asked me to transfer the postal charge of 2K which i sent then he asked me to send 8K more for delivery, so after payment he said yr 8K is pending so again told me to send (4K×2) which again naively i sent but after paying 18K they told that delivery is delayed so you need to pay 5100 more for it. So i dumped them and yelled at them. I have total call recordings and WhatsApp chats. So plz help what should i do. As a student its painful to bear a loss of 18K as a whole. Need help from OLX
