[Resolved]  Olx — phone fraud through olx in the name of indian army

Address:Law Garden, Ahmedabad, Gujarat, 380009

I have seen an advertisement on OLX for IPhone 5 SE 32 GB in 5500
I have called that guy named "Mohan Kumar" on True Caller it was showing "MOHAN KUMAR CISF" spoke with that person he said I will courier you the phone from Indian Army Military Courier Service, I don't need to pay any money now but when I send you the receipt you have to pay me the courier charges, I agreed and said ok, Then I have received the receipt on whatsapp for 440, so I have transferred 500, after an hour I have received call from Mohan Kumar he asked me to transfer 2000 as he needed in emergency, I thought the courier was on the way so I transferred the amount, in the evening I have received a call from the delivery man whose number was also mentioned on receipt and checked on true caller it was showing me "RAHUL SHARMA COURIER BOY MILITARY COURIER SERVICE" I thought it was genuine he asked me to send 3999 as a half insurance verification amount so that he receive the delivery message so he can deliver the same I called Mohan Kumar and he said let me talk to the courier service and after 10 min I received call again stating yes you have to do its army procedure which he wasn't aware, I said ok and transferred 3999 through Google pay to "RATAN SINGH INDIAN ARMY" after 10 Min Rahul Sharma the delivery man called and asked you have to pay 3999 more you have to pay the whole insurance amount for the verification, I again confirmed with Mohan Kumar and again he replied I will ask and get back to you and after few minutes I have received call from Mohan Kumar saying yes you have to do that and I again transferred the same amount, to “RATAN SINGH INDIAN ARMY” and then I thought now my mobile is 10 minutes away from me I wasn’t aware that this a scam going on after 10 minutes I have received call again from Rahul Sharma stating that I have did a big mistake the Insurance verification amount was 7999 so you have to transfer 4000” there I thought that this is a scam I tried to request Mohan Kumar to return back my money or to do something by his side he said don’t worry just wait for 40 days you will get back your money”
I know on olx there is warning not to transfer any funds before having the product, but I never thought that any one will be scamming in the name on INDIAN army
I am just posting this so that people can know that not to transfer any amount to anyone in the name of INDIAN ARMY not to get scammed like I got
