PG Fraud and Money Extortion by No Broker Website

PG Fraud and Money Extortion by No Broker Website
the scam being put forth by the so-called “owners” of the property advertised on the website. I hopped onto the website to find accommodation for the month of December in Mumbai. After browsing through various properties, I enquired about the PG in the Dadar Locality with 6000 rupees for a three sharing room. The only requirement confirmed by the owner, claiming to be Mr. Abhijeet Kotwal, was the necessity of a Visting Card for Rs. 2000. Being in urgent need, the same was confirmed.
Mr. Kotwal, further connected me to the manager of the society flat, claiming to be Mr. Ajay Malik, a retired army personnel. Under the threat of not providing accommodation and blocking the person from any properties, Mr. Malik, extorted, Rs. 1,00,000/- from the customer, confirming and constantly saying that the money will be returned immediately after a Rs. 99 deduction. The customer, under the fear, mental exhaustion, and tiredness, agreed to the same. When it came down to actually refunding and returning the amount, Mr. Malik, denied, unless, an added payment of Rs. 50, 0000/- was made.
The customer comes from a financially challenged background. And has been constantly pressured and traumatized by the claiming owner and manager, to pay the necessary money. When the customer attempted to involve her legal counsel. The manager and the owner, failed to take any calls. The money still vests with them. being a girl, the customer, is now afraid of any adverse effect being taken against her and her details being misused by the property.
