OYO Rooms Customer Care's response Hi, we would request you to help us with your booking details so that we can help you further.~Dia
This Fraud is committed by an OYO employee, because HE called my phone number and gave my reservation ID and the EXACT amount due along with UPI ID of [protected]@upi
Any outsider cannot do this.
OYO is LIABLE for the Financial Loss caused by its OWN employees
I made a Payment because, I received a mail from OYO that some would call and confirm the appointment the day before
My Booking ID is MRFF2020
