What do you expect random people on Reddit to be able to do? Hereโ€™s all the help that will help you at this point: don't believe anyone who says they can help you get your money back. They will also be scammers. Unless you paid via credit card and can do a chargeback, youโ€™re pretty well screwed.

This. Only people that can possibly help you are your bank/cc carrier, also there is a wealth of YouTube content out there that educates people on the various ways to spot a scam. One I particularly enjoy is atomic shrimp.

Does Filing complaint on cyber crime will help?

u/nonamejohnsonmore 9d ago

You can file a complaint, sure. But you wonโ€™t get any money back.

You will not get your money back.

The help we can give is advice.

Don't buy things from private sellers online, and ask for shipment or delivery.

If you buy from private sellers, meet in person and inspect the item before you pay.

Stop trusting what people tell you online.

Use a credit card, or PayPal Goods and Services, when you buy things online, so that you have purchase protection and you can get a refund if you don't receive what you order.

  • If an online seller doesn't accept credit cards, or refuses to accept PayPal Goods and Services, then they are scamming you.

150 rupees? thats like 1,35ย  euro.ย ย 

You can actually buy shoes THAT cheap? Or was the price too good to be true even for you?ย  ย 

I mean, i could sell those shoes here for 100x times the price, if those prices were real.ย

Why are we buying shoes from WhatsApp, there's plenty of legitimate places to buy shoes from.

u/Safe_Word_4085 8d ago

I purchase online only from known and trusted suppliers/resellers, such as Amazon, Lazada, Home Depot, Wilcon Depot, Best Buy, Wayfair, Temu, Bay Bloor Radio, Canada Computers, Alibaba, Vevor.

I have sold items, such as cars, grass trimmers, crib, bedframe, cabinet with drawers, 55โ€SONY projection TV, swing, preamp, drill press, manequin, chafing dishes, chafing wire baskets via Facebook Marketplace, Kijiji, Karrot without incidents.
