I saw an ad on olx and thought of buying a car. A person who told his name as vikas patel told him as an army officer and asked me to pay the money via paytm bank so that he can get the car released from pune airport office. To prove his identity – he sent me his csd canteen identity card, and his other pics (Attached). Considering the authenticity, i transferred him initial 5100/- via paytm bank as a gate pass charge to release the car from airport parking. Post this – he asked me to transfer another remaining 19999/- so that he can get the car and papers released. Unfortunately – i transferred him the remaining amount. On questioning about the car – he asked me to transfer further 62000/- more so that he can deliver me the car at my address. By this time, i realized that i am being fooled by this guy and i told him that i am going to file a complaint against him. Instead of switching off his phone, he said to me that you dont know power of army and me and i (Vikas patel) will file a case on me for fraud, he started threatening me and started talking in a rash way.

I would request you guys not to transfer money unless you see the product, no matter how trusted the other party is. Just sharing my plight so others dont suffer : (

I would request this matter to be urgently looked as i am seeing multiple complaints for fraud done under the name of indian army and this guy is fooling people.

NOTE: There are total 3-4 people stated the name below:
1. Vikas Patel (Army officer)(Main caller)
2. Vikram (Army driver)
3. Ravi Kumar(Manager)
