Dont know

Respected sir/madam,

This is one of the most suspicion activities rolling out in our country, as we are living digital india but now i feel i am also one of them fool.

As we pay them without knowing ups & down. Because, we truly trust our army & indian police. But some people taking advantage with there name and doing this type of fraud activities.

I seen car ad in olx site as very reasonable price, i was message them send me more pics & minimum car price. With in 15-20 minutes i got call from this no[protected] that person say (Main fauzi bhai bol raha hu, aapne olx par message bheja na, gaadi ke liye, aisa karo aapna aadhar card aur ek photu mujhe whatsapp par bhejo.. With rajasathani/haryanvi tone)
(Aapka order confirm kar ke aapko receipt bhej dunga me, aur aisa karo gaadi toh yaha se nikal jayegi aur morning me subah 5 baje aapke yaha pahuch jayegi bhai, jisme registration aur likha padi kaagaj ka 3999/- rupiye aap abhi bhar do) also he said (Main fouji hu mujhe aapke[protected] rupiye se apne wardi par daag nahi lagaana hai, kya baat kar di aapne toh) (With rajashtani/haryanvi tone..)

I totally trust on him and paid evening 29/09/2019 at 9.30pm online neft rs. 3950/-

After morning i again got call from another no[protected] saying (Aapka gaadi ka parcel nasik me pahuch gaya hai, aur insurance ka paper complete nahi hai, aap fauji bhai se baat karlo) when i call that person say (Aapko aur 7500/- rupees only pay karna hai gaadi shaam ke 5 baje tak aapke adress par pahuch jayegi) i totally refuse to pay addition amount and said i will not pay any single rupees to you further kindly deduct your travelling expenses and refund my remaning amount. (That person again try to covience me and when i totally refuse to pay then he was blackmaling me saying (Mera paas tera aadhar card hai, fauji bhai ko tumne mana kiya, sidey tarike se paises bhar nahi toh abhi police bhejeata hu tere ghar par).

Respected sir, my only request to you please look in to this type of matter, if we are educate people are scamed by them it means there are so many people also cheeted.

I have all the recording as well as pics.

Thanks.
Ravindra saroj.
