Today I myself was duped like many others by a person named as Vikas Patel who faked himself as a army personal.. he posted an ad on OLX selling his activa 2018 model saying that he is being transferred to Mumbai and wants to sell his activa very urgently.

He asked me ₹3100 for the payment of a gate pass from the army canteen where his bike is submitted.
He sent me a Army ID card, Driving licence and an aadhar card all on the nane of Vikas Patel. He even talked to me over phone and talked like a real army person.

I transferred the amount on the number he gave me which Truecaller showed to be registered on thr name of Army Canteen Office.

He said within 2hrs an army person will deliver the bike to you and if you don’t like the bike after checking you will get ₹3000 after deducting just ₹100.

At the scheduled delivery time, someone phoned me and said Army headquarter has red flagged the delivery and it will be delivered to you only when you transfer 50% of the scooter proposed price.

On denying any more transfer the original seller threaten me with a army case.

Now I have found out online that many innocent people have been cheated by these so claimed Army personals which is very sad.

I hope something can be done to put these fraud stet behind the bars
