He guides the victim through the process and makes him/her upload the said screenshot using Google Pay.
However, when the seller claims that the money has not been received, the fraudster claims that there is some technical issue and then sends a QR code to the victim.
After striking a deal, he then sends a fake screenshot (generated using PayTM Spoof App or similar Apps) to the seller purporting to show that the said amount has been transferred to the seller’s PayTM account. The fraudster claims that he is posted in some inaccessible area of the country and hence, can neither come to take the physical delivery, nor can he pay the money in cash and hence, needs to transfer the money online. and agrees to pay the asked price for the said good. In these frauds, a person (fraudster) usually posing as an Army/Paramilitary personnel, contacts the person who is trying to sell a product on websites or apps such as OLX, Quikr, etc.
