Text of Complaint by Sirish Mahapatra:

A tenant had reached out to for my place and gave his identity proof, and later
he asked for my patym details –
The tenant asked for a paytm pincode and UPI number and later
instead of money getting credited to my account ending with 2615, my money got deducted in three transactions –
Rs.29,999 – UPI Reference ID : 115574831052
Rs.29,999 – UPI Reference ID : 115574799462
Rs.39,999 – UPI Reference ID :115574895517
Later I raised this issue with the actual Paytm twitter handle but a fake Twitter handle @Paytmcare replied to that
saying that I have to DM him the
fraudulent transaction details.
He said and I quote “as we can check those transaction are on hold now as our Fraud prevention
bot has been flagged”.
He said the money can be refunded if I keep Rs.10000 in the Paytm wallet and later sent two pin codes and there were two
deductions of Wallet Transaction ID : 34273695800 of Rs.3007.66 and Wallet Transaction ID : 34273656624 of Rs. 6762.61.

Please help me recover the Rs.1.1 lakh. Thank you.
