Account and phone number banned for no reason/ totally unprofessional behaviour

Here below is the issue details

I was doing some conversation with one of the buyer and he asked me to share the mobile number and I have shared my another mobile number because the number that is registered on OLX is having some network issue in my area so to avoid any problem to buyer I haved shared another number.

If this is the reason of blocking my account, I was totally unaware of this.

Please...

This person saying his name "Sanjay Singh" called me saying he wants my house for rent . He asked for some pics and told me that he is from Army moving in Punjab . He said he will immediately book our house and asked us again and again to tell our gpay . But suspecting that it maybe a fraud i searched on net if anything similar happened to somebody and yes i got confirmed that its a fraud . I hope it won't happen again

      A person name M s chauhan is fraudster. he told us that he is an Army personnel, and contacted me to buy a product on OLX and agreed to pay the asked price. He claimed that he is posted in near by Bangalore and he cannot come to take the physical delivery, nor can he pay the money in cash and hence, needs to transfer the money online. also he told that his wife will be coming to purchase the product at home. After striking a deal, he told that in army, we have different kind of payment method and he provided us the upi id then he told us to enter the Rs. 1 amount there and then he credited Rs. 2 in our account in order to build the trust. later he said that he will be paying us the money, but he actually without telling us has taken our money from our account. He guided us through the process tellling that army and government has such kind of process in Google Pay. Money, instead of being credited, gets debited from our account .
      he claimed that this was a mistake and that now he is again giving UPI id for twice the amount (to account for the money that has been mistakenly debited from ours account) but this time also the amount again gets debited from ours account. he was forcing, abusing and threatening us to repeats this exercise again.
      this is the complete case of fraud done by M s chauhan with us. without informing us he has taken our money, and not giving us back. he threatened me and my family. and now we are helpless. we became victim of this fraud and scam. we dont know where to ask for justice.
      we are requesting, please help us in this case.
      we hope this forum can help us and other victim like us to get the justice.

                What is wrong with OLX, why it is suspending the running accounts, Olx people are so unprofessional. Do they really want people to stop their services.
                OLX logged out my account and when I looked in. I got to know this. I was about to close my deal and now that buyer would think of me as fraud. What is this behaviour?

                Hi Team,

                I have shared the details on [protected]@olx.in.

                Please acknowledge and resolve this issue as I am a frequent user of your services.

                Just because of this the buyer might be thinking of me as fraud.

                This is ruining the deal
                You cannot run away without answering, this will surely be reported to authority.

                You are blocking the accounts arbitrary may be because you cannot manage the customers.

                      Hi,

                      OLX is not allowing me to chat with buyers. Buyers are not receiving my messages. I tried from both desktop and mobile. Each time I logout and login, the chat gets cleared. I believe this is to force me to purchase premium ads.

                        I requested for my cars valuation and inspection from OLX and the same was done the very next day. However, instead of sending me a quote I am going on getting spam calls (almost 4-5) for the past one week following up regarding the confirmation of the car valuation and inspection that has already been done. Please provide me a quote instead of incessantly calling me. This is too annoying.

                            Sobex / OLX are habitual fraudsters.
                            My car has ALTO MH01 AC5370 has been in their possession for more than 6 months but no transfer done.
                            10 days of mails and calls to OLX.
                            They are not willing to disclose where my car is parked as I will get RTO to impound vehicle.

                            I dare these rascals to reply to this.

                              I am a verified user and use OLX on single phone. Have been using for years now but i post my own phone ad and my account gets banned out of nowhere.

                              No response from the support team nor any reason for the suspension. Pathetic. Switching to Quikr if not unblocked.

                                  I posted a add for swing in OLX and deal was fixed for 6000. 2 persons contacted me for closing the deal they asked me to scan QR telling he is working in annanagar for his office he needs a swing and since he is swipping money from card to make payment he asked me to scan for 2Rs first then 6000Rs fallen into trap and he asked me to pay again 12000Rs then i got to know those are fraud numbers.
