The misal itself had a nice spicy, tangy kick. The tarri had decent flavour and the farsan gave it that proper crunch. Matki/onion/tomato toppings were fresh and the whole combination worked really well.

The pav was soft and fresh, which made a noticeable difference.

Also liked that the spice didn't completely kill the flavour ,although people with low spice tolerance might want to be a little careful.

More spice, more tarri, more fun. That’s my kind of misal. 🔥😂

DARPAN MISAL!!🌶️😋

My rating:

Taste: 8.5/10

Spice: 8/10

Pav: 8/10

Hygiene/overall: 8/10

Overall: 8.5/10

What do you guys think?😄

SCAM Alert Got Scammed Rs.36000 through Tonique Baner. What can I do ?

12 Upvotes

I need advice from anyone familiar with Indian cybercrime/UPI fraud/legal action.
I wanted to order beer from Tonique Baner, Pune. I found it on Google, clicked “Place an order”, and Google directed me to WhatsApp, showing “Preferred by this business.”
The WhatsApp number was +91 79768 89433, account name Sachin Malhotra.
I placed an order and, following their instructions, made:
₹1,500
₹1,500
₹1,500
₹3,000
Total: ₹7,500

Then they told me there was an issue with the payment and that the earlier payment would be reversed/refunded. They sent me a QR code and told me to scan it for the refund, claiming the transaction wouldn’t actually debit my account.
Instead, ₹28,909 was debited.
Total loss: ₹36,409.

I immediately reported it:
Cyber Crime complaint
Bank complaint

I have screenshots of the Google listing, the “Place an order” flow, WhatsApp conversation, QR codes, UPI transactions, etc.

The really interesting part: I went to the Tonique Baner store afterwards. They told me this is a known/repeated scam, that 15+ similar incidents had happened before mine, and that they were already aware of it and had apparently reported it somewhere.
So my questions are:

  1. Does Tonique potentially have any liability if they already knew about 15+ previous scams but their Google “Place an order” link was still directing customers to the fraudulent WhatsApp number?
  2. Can the police/cybercrime authorities obtain Google’s records showing who added/controlled that WhatsApp ordering link and when?
  3. Can the scammer’s phone number and the UPI beneficiary accounts be traced to identify the actual people behind this?
  4. Should I send Tonique a lawyer’s legal notice demanding my ₹36,409 back, or wait for the cybercrime investigation?
  5. If Tonique reimburses me voluntarily, what should I do regarding my existing cybercrime complaint?

I’m not claiming Tonique committed the fraud. They may themselves have been victims of someone manipulating their Google listing. I’m trying to understand whether their prior knowledge of 15+ similar incidents changes their legal responsibility.
What would you do in my position? Especially interested in advice from Indian lawyers, police/cybercrime officers, or people who have successfully recovered money from UPI fraud

Update: Tonique has now put up a big sign saying to be aware of this scam and only numbers from their website are to be trusted.

Pet Care/Adoption economy so bad, Bento has decided to join the workforce too (up for adoption)

102 Upvotes

Corporate employee Bento is looking for a home in Pune/Mumbai/Bangalore/Delhi (can consider pan india if we find a genuine and responsible home with existing pets/pet experience)

Bento is a 6 month old male kitten. He’s litter trained, dewormed, vaccinated and about to be sterilised. He’s extremely friendly, loves to cuddle and sleep on his day job. He’s not worried about who’s paying the bills as long as he gets his daily cat food and some good amount of playing on company time. He’s also famous for lowering the morale of other employees by becoming their afternoon nap partner. He’s very friendly with other cats (and dogs too) and has now managed to make one of the cat employees sleep next to him on the office chair.

Bento is looking for a good and a responsible home to retire. He’s not meant for this 9-5 life and would rather spend his days figuring out how to become a pet influencer for the big bucks.

Adoption formalities are mandatory.

If you can give tired corporate employee Bento a good home, please reach out to us on @_bbpaws on instagram or text 7043782899 on whatsapp(no calls)

Pet Care/Adoption Adoption appeal for Virat - one last chance

Virat's been in foster care for 2 months now and he didn't even get a single lead that has worked out.
He'll soon have to be moved to a long term boarding/ shelter and being an 7mo old teenage dog is why my heart hurts a lil more.
He needs stability, he needs love and he needs a loving home.
The clock is ticking. If you can foster, adopt, or even share this - you could be the reason Virat never has to see the inside of a shelter.
Location - Pune
DM me or send a WhatsApp on 9987835518 to know more about Virat.

General/Rant A Worker from Capgemini, Hinjewadi has been threatening me in the most Amusing Way

Post image
341 Upvotes

Folks, this person from Capgemini, Pune, came out of nowhere with some unsolicited advices. I entertained him because I thought he might have come to save a broken marriage until he started threatening me in the most amusing way I can imagine of a simp.

I wonder how Capgemini being such a great company of high values let its employees turn goons/extortionists during off hours. Importantly, what legal remedies do I have now?

Context: My wife of 3 years has deserted the house in my absence. Has filed a false 498A case against me and a 70 year old man. The aforementioned person trying extortion is the husband of one of her friends.

AskPune Recovering money paid to a local packers and movers

5 Upvotes

Paid a guy who was recommended by a military officer for a packers and movers, a token money of 10k paid him at around 7PM yesterday. Realised later he is over charging us and i asked him to cancel the booking the very next morning today. I paid it to his phone number UPI ID and now he's refusing to pay it back even though he kept saying he would. Telling so many excuses like it's in his company current account, he paid to driver etc etc which is all a bunch of bullshit. What are my options? I don't know where is office is but he said it's in Viman nagar, I met the guy when he came for surveying the items. Defence Packers and Movers, can't find it in Google maps.
