Recently a friend who is in police saved himself from such a fraud.
he was selling his
Tata indica, and someone called and said he wants to buy the car.
after negotiation on phone for couple of days, he said I sent someone to see the car, it was parked at some place so
the seller assumed he might have seen it already from outside etc.
later this buyer started saying, he has problems getting full cash and he wants his
brother to transfer a major chunk of 50K
and he needs Debit Card number and pin to do so.
the seller smelled what was cooking for him and informed his senior officers who lodged the complaint but since then this number
is switched off and its hard to get trace of this guy as he used that phone only to cheat buyers and have not made any other calls
except to buyers.
lets see if he makes any more mistakes and gets caught.
So when dealing with OLX you should not buy things REMOTELY
They clearly state its a person to person transaction and not an online shopping.
Try your luck with police, as you might have details where you transferred money so you can get hold of this Fraudster.
