[Resolved]  Quikr — Fraud worth Rs. 7200 by seller

Address:Delhi
Website:www.quikr.com

Yesterday at 5:30 p.m., I called a seller named Parveen who was giving a used 5-star Samsung fridge worth 4000. The person told he is an army person who is shifting out and wants to sell his fridge. I was told to send my address on his whatsapp and then he asked me that it would be delivered by 7:30 p.m. through the Army transport co. and I need to make a payment of 1000 in adv, the rest will be needed to pay when the transport guy will come to my home. I made the first payment of 1000 on this account -
Name: Mr. Rahul Kumar
Account number: [protected]
IFSC: IDFB0021256
SWIFT code: IDFBINBBMUM
Bank name: IDFC FIRST
Branch: GREATER NOIDA - BETA PLAZA BRANCH

I was given a receipt of the said transport co.
Then at 7:30 I receive a call that the person is at 15 mins distance from my address and I need to first make a payment of 3000+100 before he comes to deliver the fridge. I tell my friend and he pays 3100 to them. Then again I was asked that it was meant to be 2 successive payments of 3000 and 100 instead of a single payment and hence I need to send the money again. on being asked to send the 3100 that has been paid, i was told that they only have cash and i need not worry as they would give me 6200 in cash when they reach my address. After good discussion I again tell my friend to make two payments of 3K and 100 respectively.
Following this I get a call saying there is still error showing on the website and I need to pay 6200 now and they will gige me 12000 in cash. We talked to all of them and disagreed saying that first they return the sent amount. They didn't listen to which we said we don't need the fridge, give us our money back. Naturally we didn't get the money and have been blocked by them.
