vasai, 401209

I received a call to purchase the bed that i had put on olx for sale. I had not uploaded the pic of the bed in the add, still the person who said he is vikas patel a army person wanted to buy the bed and was in such a rush to do the payment through google pay, i told him to come and meet he said he is a army person on duty, so cant meet it was late night 10.30, i told him to call the next day but he was not ready to wait, i gave him my husbands mobile number for google pay, as i thought he is giving me money and not asking money from me so how can he be a fraud. Later after 10 mins he called up for google qr, i said wait for some time will send, within the next 10 mins he called me thrice for qr and also messaged me in wats app asking for the same, so i got suspicious and told him to do the payment when he comes to collect the bed. He requested me to send the qr so that he can transfer, when i said no again, he stopped picking my call. This was fraud call and i got saved but there are so many other people who are being fooled, so i thought i will share this as people can fool us by even saying that they will send money to us. Number from which i got call [protected]. Name that he told me vikas patel (Olx he is registered as patelrakesh80837) please block this person from olx.
