I posted an ad on olx to sell my old books. Got a message from a guy who asked my number to confirm the deal. He asked to send my location from where his guy will pick up the books and he’ll pay online. Then he asked to send Rs 2 to his account and he sent me 4 rupees saying it’s required for him to confirm payment via swiping machine and he sent me a screenshot(later I realised it’s fake) of payment he has made to me already. I fell for that and scanned the code he sent me and sent him 2 rupees. Then while on call with him I received messages from bank of 3 consecutive deductions. Two of 700 and one of 2800 and then I disconnected the call. The transactions stopped. I lost a total of 4200 rupees. Please help me.
I’ve already complained to cyber cell, my bank’s home branch and even sent a mail to my bank.
I know I shouldn’t have scanned the code but at that time I got manipulated. Please help me recover my parents’ money.
