The guy named raj posted ad on OLX saying he wants to sell his iPhone 5s 32gb for 8900, and agreed to sell it for 5000. After contacting him on call he said he is in rajasthan for some family emergency and needs urgent money, he will be able to courier the phone and I can transfer the amount throughly paytm. After transferring the half amount of 2500, he sent a courier slip which is 45 days old. So I called the courier service and they told me that the guy is fraud and has been cheating people for long time. I tried calling him back for refund and he started abusing and denied to refund any amount.
