In July, I stumbled upon a Telegram channel named amzn-in, which is operated by a scammer. His username is @itsaustinreal or t.me/itsaustinreal.
The channel advertised products worth lakhs of INR for just 5000 INR. Tempted by the deal, I made an advance payment of 1500 INR. We continued our conversation on Telegram, but when I asked him to switch to WhatsApp, he provided his number: +916376095063.
I then transferred the remaining 3500 INR, bringing the total to 5000 INR. After receiving the full amount, he made me wait a few days and then asked for even more money.
When I refused, he cleared the chat history on Telegram, so I can’t provide screenshots from those conversations.
However, I do have screenshots from WhatsApp. I’m posting this to alert others and prevent them from falling into the same trap. Be cautious and avoid dealing with this person: +916376095063/t.me/itsaustinreal.
BTW I’M BLOCKED FROM EVERYWHERE NOW HE EVEN BANNED ME FROM HIS CHANNEL.
I texted some people on scammed who too were scammed by this person and they gave me his photo, his name is Kuldeep and is from Rajasthan, Sawai Madhopur. ( Swipe left ⬅️ to see the whole chat )
