My husband and I were looking for a 2BHK apartment on rent and we came across a great deal at Housing.com listed for DLF regency Park 1, Gurgaon.
This flat is listed by Suresh Mittal (alleged owner, phone no. 88763 18258) which turned out to be a complete fraud. We wanted to visit the site and so contacted this owner whereby he asked for refundable 2000 rupees for a gate / visit pass. My husband provided his details and then paid rupees 2000 via Gpay to “hgssy@ybl”.
After sometime, Sanjay Sharma (alleged Society incharge, phone no. +91 96780 18519) called my husband and informed him that visit pass will be prepared for specific days. Sanjay called for the second time and updated my husband stating that he is unable to locate details in their databases and so asked my husband to make a refundable payment of rupees 6004 for a site visit. At this time, it triggered my husband that something is really fishy here, thus he did not make this payment of 6004.
We asked for the refund of 2000 rupees, they said it will take a week or so for the refund. This is now very clear that we will not get this refund and it’s pretty awful we have been scammed on a broad day light.
This is so ridiculous and the scam happening at such a renowned site housing.com is really an embarrassment.
Housing.com, if you really respect your customers using your site, please help us in getting back the refund.
