Seller posed as some Sunita Kumari (CISF Jawan) Mo. Number [protected] and deal was fixed for 6500 rupees for Sofa alone. I deposited 2500 rupees through Paytm to Mo. No. [protected] (coming on name of AO Ashok on Paytm) as advance.

Next Morning got call from Sanjay Singh Mo. No. [protected] asking to do full payment (of remaining 4k) as without that Sofa will not be left for delivery. After this payment, got another call asking for payment of 5120 rs. as security deposit and he said at the time of delivery after deducting 20 rupees, 5100 will returned. I asked specifically if I need to do one transaction of 5120 or 2 transactions of 5100 and 20, so he asked to do 5120 at once.

In next call he said, sahab said you have to do 2 transaction of 5100 and 20, he misunderstood and apologised. I asked him to return first amount then only I will pay next. Again I was convinced on name of Indian Army and did those 2 transactions and agreed to get refund of 10220 during delivery.

In next call, I was asked for 11400, saying since delivery has been delayed more than specified time, they are bound to give bill of full cost of Sofa and I will be refunded of whatever extra I am paying. By this time I doubted their intentions, and asked for their proof and other details and I was provided. Attached here. So, I got convinced and paid that amount too.

So, after all this drama, on getting another request for 9999 rs. we went to nearby Police Station to lodge complaint of this online fraud, we were informed about this racket. I also spoke to that seller Sunita Kumari from there itself and she was pressurizing me to do payment, but this time I didn't give in and asked them to come to my home and collect whatever money they need.

After all this, this guy Sanjay Singh (or whatever his name is) has audacity to call again and said your money is stuck for 6 months in Army's account. Give me 2100 and I will get it released. and we were resolute to not give a penny to these a**holes again.
