[Resolved]  Urban Company — fraud by plumber took 5500 and never returned

We booked a plumber through urban company. The guy came and checked the work. It's a work for my restaurant.

He asked for 3000 rs for material, we paid in cash as he said we cannot pay online for material and went to take the material. He then came next day and started the work.

In between he said he need more materials and asked to give him 2500 rs more. We paid in cash. Than he asked us to cancel the booking as he is going to take material and if we will not cancel the booking than his ratings will get downgraded. So we did as he said.

It was yesterday morning, he gave us his personal number also. But since than we are trying to call him. He has blocked my number.

He has fled with my 5500 rs.

I have all the recorded conversations with him which was done over call.

I have checked online also and this guy had done fraud earlier also. Check the below link

We had a Con call with Plumber and Urban Company Representative Mr. Abhishek yesterday. In which Plumber accepted that his intentions was to do fraud but he promised to come yesterday itself. But he never turned up and blocked all my numbers.

We did not pay the money to any random plumber whom we found on the the Road. This guy was sent by the Urban Company. So if they have such employees who are working with them only to do the Fraud than its the fault of company that they are not taking strict legal actions against such employees.

I have already dropped 2 emails to your email ID but did not get any call back. Kindly arrange a call back.
