Complaint Details
A fake person showed interest in buying my books on OLX. He claimed to be an Army personnel and even shared his ID card with me. I have his phone number, Aadhaar card, canteen card, and the transaction ID of the payment I made. He told me that he had a government card and would send me a payment QR code. He said that if I scanned the code and made a payment, the amount would be credited to my bank account instead. I was suspicious at first, but he sent me ₹1, and when I scanned the code and made the payment, the money was actually credited to my account. This made me trust him. After that, he asked me to make a payment of ₹1,280, assuring me that the amount would be credited to my account. However, I did not receive the money. He then asked me to pay ₹199, but that amount was also not credited. That's when I realised that I had been scammed. He send me diff qr codes I have a picture of them
