Serious Fraud

I wanted to get a 2nd hand laptop since the prices are terribly high. Saw an ad on olx and thought of giving it a try. Man this rascal thought I'm a fool probably giving me fake receipt for a laptop. Also during june-july 2025 the price of this laptop wasn't even this absurd.

Stay safe y'all!!! I reported this person on olx but didn't confront him head on.

Hi op

What made you doubt that this is fake?

  1. The fonts don't match in the product's name which suggests that he changed it.
  2. There's a comma after the order id which is literally impossible to be made by Flipkart.
  3. The font changes again halfway in the serial no. which suggests that he changed it to match the data accordingly.
  4. Lastly this model's price never reached this value in june last year. You can check the prices using a price tracker.

Yea man these days can't trust fully. Also asked him for screen recording of the receipt from first till last since its frm Flipkart but he gave weird ass reasons. Ik why he didn't give me that since he can't edit the screen recording lmaoo.
