Address: New Delhi, Delhi, 110009

Website: olx.in

I posted an advertisement for selling a laptop on olx, when a person named Adria Barnett contacted me, saying she is from USA and needs it for an orphanage. It seemed fishy as the amount she was paying was twice what I asked for. Further she was asking for following details

Holders Name:
Account Number"
Ifsc Code"
Bank Name:
Email Address

I searched for the this name and found that there are previous complaints on similar name and similar nature

Please take actions so that any gullible person may not be trapped.
