Olx India — fraud by the olx user named shrikant ubale | |||
I became a victim on 4 Jan 2020 by a olx user named thomas. I was selling office chairs for 30000 and he saw my phone no from olx and called me . We had done the deal for 20000. Then he told ne that have you ever used a swipe machin payment method. As i was not aware about it so i said no and he contacted me on whatsapp and sent a QR code with 1 rupee.. he told me to scan the qr in your phone pe and you will get 1 rupee... It is just for the confirmation that the payment is going to right person... So after scanning it asked for the upi pin and i entered it as it was only 1 rs...first 1 rupee was deducted from my account then again it got credited and also i got 1rupee credited by the fraudster having the name on phone as mahaveer suman. As i said that i got the 1 rupee then he send me 2000 rs QR code, then same thing happened, i scanned the qr but then amount not credited on my account... My 2000 rs was debited.. so he told you have entered it late you have enter it again you will get 6000rs credited.. as i want to bring my 2000 back i tried once again and again 2000rs got deducted.. But no money got deposited.. then i thought at it could be scam so i stopped the process and transferred my all money to my friend.. Again i called and told him to send the money back directly to my account then he told to switch the payment app to paytm.. scan the QR there it will get credited... As i know the same thing will happed i disconnected the call and reached to the nearest police station.. They told me that it the matter of cyber crime.. I have both the mobile no of the fraudster.. And the name shown in the whatsapp is shrikand shrimant ubale... I searched for name on google then i realized i m not only the one... So thought i should also report the complaint and make the people aware.. I also gave the call recording .. phonepe statement, upi address of the fraudster.. Was this information helpful? | |||
