Yes, You are reading it right. "Chor bhare pade hain olx aur quikr pe."
People find very easy to post an ad on quikr or olx and sell thier used items.
But, the Fraudsters find this as a path to fool innocent peoples.
They sell electronics such as mobiles (especially apple iphones & samsung mobiles), tablets, etc. They post a very cheap price, to trap their targets.
Those prices are such cheap that even the original company can never give , even if u direct buy from the company itself.
Now, once you contact them, via Mail or Phone, they will talk to u in english being as a forigner. They will be having indian mobile numbers , a fake courier website of UK especially.
To order, they will ask you to buy in bulk and will also offer you a free phone on buying more than 3 peices.
Once you are fooled, they make you to pay an advanced amount of the total order via bank deposit or western union money transffer.
And thats where, your all money is taken away from your own hands.
There is every 1 person in a week fooled online, and still most of the people don't log any complaint.
THERE ARE PEOPLE FROM Ulhasnagar, Dombivili, Kalyan, Ambernath & Thane District who have been Victims of these Scams.
If buyers follow one simple rule of trade they will ever get tricked that is "if a deal sounds too good then dont take it"and never pay even a rupee before you get the product in your hand.No body can give you a new sealed packed phone+bill for 50% discount not even the company dealer can. stay smart.stay safe
