Yesterday morning it started..By seeing olx advertisement we contacted that number, but the name of him and advertisement person name was different..He speaking hindi and his way of talking is damn trustable.In true caller we found his name as parveen kumar..He said that total amount is 25000 so first send 3100 quickly for transport sending RC and pics of scooty honda activa 5g.Falling in his trap my father has sent him that money through phone pe to contact number given by him later within hours he forced us to pay 11000rupees mediately saying that some problem is there in transporting. There we got doubt without scooty delivery how could we pay that much amount.We started verifying all the info send by him we have come to conclusion that he is a fraud and a big team is there behind this..All the details i have added in photos you can go through..I beg olx to verify and add members in olx and this people who are doing this fraud in the masks and faces of military people is very heart burning..i feel like there is big fraud and big scam behind this..please sort out this issue and try to return our money back

      Hi i normally use to buy items in Olx. However, recently i saw add posted in the name of Roshan kumar - Mobile number. [protected] and cost of Rs.8000/- ( Used one). Initially i have chatted with him, since he has posted the add in local address of West mambalam, RAM colony, CHENNAI. He has responded and told me that, since he is army restricted area, persons are not allowed only delivery through by his person and asked me transfer token advance of Rs.2000.

      I have transfer through google pay - Mobile no.[protected], UPI transaction id:[protected], UPI id: [protected]@okaxis on 17.11.2020.

      I had a doubt on the profile and i have asked his ID details ( He has forwarded the Army Liquor canteen id card and aadhar number).

      On the very next day he has sent me the delivery slip ( which is printed in as Indian Army - courier parcel department) - how they have printed is not known and insisted me to pay Rs. 3000+999 as policy amount and GST on that. - I have not paid this.

      I have asked them to send the bank account details, they have set the same.( Account no:[protected], Account Name: Roshan Kumar, Bank name: ICIC bank and IFC code of ICIC0000734).

      Again he has given one sargent saying he is a delivery boy. His details, Name: J. Govind CISF officer, contact no.[protected], his PAN no. BBGPJ3304N, Central Reserve police ID FORCE No:[protected] & Card No. 607/42BN/2019 - .

      All the photo copies of the proof as mentioned are attached.

      This needs to be addressed, how they are printing the CISF id cards and army canteen cards.

      HI,

      First of all as OLX plat form you restrict the users without proper details and without verification, you should restrict these type of frauds.

      Other wise this will not stop it will continue. There should be some registration mechanism to post adds after filling necessary details.

      So that, if any one cheats like that, we can catch them easily.

      Not satisfactory response.

                The people in olx are so unprofessional and rude, they banned my account for no reason, I have been using olx for 6 to 7 years and this is how they treat their customers. I contacted them and they said I violated terms and conditions and when I asked what then they denied to tell me the reason. My account is [protected]@gmail.com. I feel very upset and mistreated for this.

                          Hi,

                          This is to inform you that some people are doing scams on the name of indian army. I was told by an OLX user to transfer an advance of Rs. 3250/- which I did. Later I got to know that the person is not genuine because he was asking for more money without giving me the product.

                          Please find the attached documents for more information.
