Beware of Karanlodhi
I’m sharing my distressing experience to caution others against falling prey to this scammer.
The Incident
On November 04, 2024, I sold 77 USDT to a P2P user, Karanlodhi. He transferred money from his bank account, including:
Bank account: Rs. 7100
However, on November 11, 2024, he filed a dispute with his bank, claiming the transaction was unauthorized.
Consequences
1. My Account is Locked: Despite submitting screenshots as evidence of receiving the payment, my account is still locked.
2. Collateral Damage: All other accounts I transferred money to are also locked.
Bank's Stance
My bank is now demanding that I reverse the transaction by sending the disputed amount (Rs. 7100) back to Karanlodhi. They insist this is the only way to unlock my account and those affected.
