[Resolved]  Quikr — tried buying a nintendo 3ds console but was cheated

Address:Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, 226001
Website:mumbai.quikr.com/new-nintendo-3ds-xl-new-galaxy-style-limited-edition-handheld-system-console-w0qqad

My offer for a product (Gaming console https://tinyurl.com/y7atus4b) was accepted. Quikr kept sending me mails about the payment. There was no doorstep delivery so i contacted the seller and he connected to me on whatsapp. He gave me his bank account number and asked me to pay the offer money of rs 5000/-. I did so but after that he blocked me on his whatsapp and now i'm sitting here typing this looking like a fool. I didn't know that the payment on this site was optional unlike ebay where you necessary have to pay after making an offer. I have the proof of conversation and also the proof of deposit of the accepted sum. Please return me my hard earned money back. If there are such sellers thriving on your platform then it is entirely your fault.

Ps: they have removed the add now but the issue about money remains unresolved.

Hi, I was about to fall for this same fraud today, I wanted to buy Nintendo switch, I contacted two different sellers and both of them asked me to contact them on WhatsApp and asked me to to pay 15000 plus 5000 for shipping which he said will come from USA, the other seller also gave the similar deal, I told them I will contact them later as I felt it could’ve been a fraud. I have uploaded all the screenshots of conversations of both sellers in these seperate albums
