I posted an ad on olx followed by which I received a phone call from this number +917977435632. The person himself proposed to pay 10,000 in advance in my bank account and sent a fake original bank looking like text message for transfer of 16,000. He gave me a call again telling me that he sent 16000 by mistake and asking me to return 6000 on paytm number- 9167683299. And because I did not check my bank details from bank trusting the fake sms i returned 6000 to him. I have seen a few more complaints regarding the same person. I have all transaction proofs and whatsapp chat too.
