[Resolved]  Olx India — Fraud of 13650 rupees in name of army officer

I saw a ad on olx of iphone x selling at 10000 by an army officer.
I tried to contact him and he asked to chat over whatsapp.
We had a conversation and finalized the deal at 6000 .
He told to give him 2000 in advance so we did and the rest when the phone gets delivered.
Next day, he told to give rest 4000 and 500 extra for army courier service and told that delivery boy has picked up the package.
So I gave him 4500 through yono sbi to his account no [protected] so that delivery boy can deliver it.
But after half an hour he told to give 7150 as army security fees so i gave that too, but he told to give again as transaction Id didn't matched .
Then I realized that he was a fraud and gave complain against him to cyber crime department of police .
