So i bought a graphic card last week from eBay from seller called smartphone_wear
Yesterday i got a call from an eBay representative, called Ravi Kumar Ph No. 9874848282 telling me i have won assured gift congrats blah blah. I was asked to select a prize from several electronics. I choose the iPhone 7.
I was suspicious, but then they said that i was selected from among several buyers and they even said that i recently bought a graphic card for xyz amount. So i kinda trusted them since it seemed legit. But they had a condition that i had to make a purchase worth Rs5000 and above in their name. I decided to buy a 2TB USB HDD worth Rs5950 I asked to do payment via PayTM so i made two monetary transactions.
One worth Rs5000
Other worth Rs950
Both to this phone number 80135541084
Now today this morning they call me up and ask me to pay Rs11,000 for GST for the iPhone prize . I refused and i asked for some proof that they are legit from EBay.
I think i am fooled and can anyone advice me ho i can get my Rs5950 back. Can i take some action via eBay since they have my private information like what items i bought (or maybe eBay gave these info to them)
