beware: rental scam is wild right now (How I got finessed) 🛑👇
Alright y'all, I am typing this with pure rage just got completely finessed out of ₹5,000 by a fake landlord on Magicbricks. Don't fall for his mind games.
I was looking for a 1 BHK flat in Raghunathpur bhubaneswar . Magicbricks made me pay ₹800 just to unlock the owner’s number.
I called him to secure the flat before anyone else. He told me, to Pay a token amount, up to you how much.Since he left the amount to me and asked for my ID and photo he sounded lowkey genuine. I sent ₹2,000.
The second it cleared, he started demanding more cash:
his first Gate Pass Lie- He demanded another ₹3,000 to remove the ad and make a society "gate pass".
and here I had this weird gut feeling right before paying the ₹3,000, and honestly, I should’ve trusted it.
I got suspicious and demanded his ID. He confidently sent an Aadhaar card from Uttar Pradesh (UP) and claimed he lives on the 7th floor of Royal Lagoon. He sounded so real I paid the ₹3,000.
I waited all evening for confirmation. He finally called back and demanded ANOTHER ₹9,000 just to unlock a stupid PDF file.
That's when my brain cells booted up. I gave him full slangs and blocked him.
He’s a remote scammer in UP using stolen IDs and premium society names to bait people.
I’ve attached the screenshots. His phone number is completely visible. If this clown ever messages you, block and report his account immediately so we can tank his operations. Never send money upfront! ✌️
(btw this is his no +91 9129849103 if anyone’s frustrated, feel free to spam-call him )
