I wanted to buy an iphone 6s. I saw the add on olx with a very reasonable price. He said he is in army and will send the phone via army courier within that day. For that i have to pay 1100rs. I sent. When the courier boy arrived he said i have to pay the whole amount of rs 12000. I paid. Then he said i have to pay a security deposit of rs 5100. I paid. He said all these is rule of indian army canteen. Now he is not returning my money and also i haven’t received any phone. I am still in contact with the fake seller.
