I was fooled today by a fraudster and he looted 4200₹ .From an ad that was posted in OLX for Mahindra Thar CRDE 2015.It was quoted at an attractive price 3 L. When I called the Number[protected] that was in the ad. the person claimed he was an Indian army personnel CISF and he shared his ID in the name of Rajesh Kumar Meena also his name and photo in true caller was matching his CISF I'd and he sent his photo with uniform that had his badge name as Rajesh Kumar Meena so I trusted him completely. This guy said he works in Bangalore airport as CISF and in order to inspect the vehicle he said he would send it to Palakkad where I live through the airport consignment service thst was enroute to the kochi airport .
He said in order to do the booking via the airport military service I need to send him 4200₹. And 2500 would be refunded regardless I take the vehicle or not. I live in Palakkad and would have costed me around 2K to travel to Bangalore and was alright if only 2500 was refundable so i sent him the cash to the below bank details.
Name: Gurdeep Kauri
A/C : [protected]
IFSC : FDRL0007777
Bank : Federal Bank

After which he sent me a challan which looked absolutely fake and immediately I knew I was fooled and was embarrassed and felt ashamed .The next day morning some one else calls me in the name of Parveen kumar[protected] and claimed he was the airport consignment service guy and thst he confronted a problem on the way in Coimbatore and wanted me to transfer 11200 without which he cannot bring the vehicle to me to inspect.
Now when I said I am not interested to take the vehicle he said he would not refund nothing and he stopped responding to my calls or messages.
I'm not sure how in this earth I slipped to this fraudster. The thought of being fooled keeps haunting me.these fraudsters have sketched their every move very well thst makes you believe completely. Please be aware.
I am attaching the pics that was sent to me

    On 31.Oct.2021 I saw an ad on OLX for purchasing used Honda Activa.
    OLX ID 1050
    I got call from [protected] He duped me acting as a Indian Army personnel who got transferred from Mumbai to other location so selling his vehicle on urgent basis.
    Deal was set at Rs 14000 for which he asked my adhaar, PAN and photograph along with Rs 1100 advance for vehicle ownership transfer.
    After that he send me fake military canteen ID card and adhaar card for gaining my trust.
    On delivery time he again asked me to transfer Rs 7000 for which I denied.
    He started abusing and threatened me saying I have all your ID documents and will misuse it.

    Please help me and expose this type of fraudsters who are using prestigious Indian Army name to fool persons.

            Olx banned my account without any reason. I didn't post any ads didn't bought any products, there's no reason to ban my account (jaseelu.[protected]@gmail.com) . Unfortunately there is also no customer support! . This is so unprofessional behaviour from olx team.

              Olx people have banned my account since last two weeks.. i dont know for what reason they have did this. I have tried to contact them in every way possible but there is no response. If they dont want people to access their own account then what is the reason of such heavy advertisements. So pissed with the olx customer care service. My email id is [protected]@gmail.com

                Ad was regarding the office chair in OLX India

                This is Amit Nema and I would like to file a complaint against the recent fraudulent activity that was made via OLX/ paytm payment mode.
                The fraudster tried to manipulate by sending multiple screenshots of QR codes and asked to make the payment first and then they would return back the complete amount.
                This went on for a couple of hrs and I ended up losing 22.5K .
                I have raised complaints with paytm and my bank with which i hold the account .

                Would need your help to expedite this issue and get back the money as I am going through some financial crunch.

                                  They irritate me by calling regularly. I told them that I don't need any service from Olx auto service.

                                        I paid for featured ad 1650 rs . They placed my ad for 2 hours only and then they expired my ad however they took money for 30 days. Reason they told me that I changed the location however there application captured wrong location and I corrected it manually. Now they are saying they will not put my advertisement back on featured. For only two hours they charged 1650 rupees. I am very much disappointed by there features service. Please help me to resolve this issue.
