[Resolved]  Olx India — car fraud (told me that he is in indian army)

I visited olx, and i saw a ad of maruti suzuki omni. I messaged him, then he replied with a number told me to whatsapp.. I asked shall i come to see the car condition n all. He told they won't allow us there. They will send u the car to home address then u can trail and purchase. He told u have to pay 3100 for transport charges. I told i don't have that much in account. He told no problem pay 1000 it will be enough... After i sent him he told u have to pay full amount of transport, then he will send u the receipt.
I have added the receipt pic which he sent me, after some time gprs problem send me 14990, then only car will come to your location, then that driver called me he said even iam army officer trust me ur cash will be in safe hands, no need to worry to just transfer the amount i didn't do that he said (Me apni wardi ki kasam khake kehatu me ajaunga) i didn't not transfer more cash i got doubt on them... Then i called the person and said him i'm not interested in purchasing of car, he told u wasted a army officers time he is waiting from many hours in car, he told he will file a case against me for wasting army officers time and all.. Then he told ur amount might refunded in 45days.. N cutted the call... I will upload of the pictures he sent me... Plzz caught those culprit..🙏🙏
