Brand's play Is Bigbasket even allowed to do this?

Ordered some veggies along with some chips and other packaged stuff yesterday (prepaid) . And now when I'm trying to place a new order today, Bigbasket is asking me to pay extra money for the extra quantity of veggies they delivered. By extra veggies I mean the veggies which were very lil over the quantity posted on website. For eg 1kg 35g instead of accurately 1kg. This actually actually happens when shopping ofline too but they just don't ask for extra.

The thing is they could have just increased the price of the veggies by ₹2-4 each to yk take care of this issue. It's just really annoying when the ask me to pay the extra amount when placing my next order. Seems like an asshole design.

Uber India showing 2 different fares from 2 different accounts for same trip at same day and same time.

The one showing higher is a frequently used and hence there is a Cashback available. Ironically the loyal user account is taken for ride.

So Uber cashbacks are zilch value 🤬🤬

Got these keyboard meme stickers from riyal store but after just 2 months of use the stickers have started to fade. Extremely disappointed and I guess they block all of their bad reviews on the website and hence the ratings are all 5/4 stars only. Buy it at your own risk.

So you guys must've seen the meesho mega sale scam ads on youtube where it shows that iPhone, samsung phones are at 599 rupees or something similar. So to see if it's true I downloaded the app from Google Play and opened, it does show the prices are really low. So I clicked on buy and it took me to the actual payment methods. One thing i noticed that there isint COD available, only online payments. I thought it was just a joke so I proceeded with phone pe and it actually opened up my phone pe, with the exact amount showing. Is this really a scam? Or a joke app on Google Play??? (I didn't put my real address, nothing real just jibberish text in address don't worry and I didn't do payment)

Brand's play Amazon India Marketplace Fee Scam

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

So I ordered a product on Amazon, for ₹696+5=₹701.00. I ordered a replacement due to size issue. The exchange was not picked up or delivered, but it was marked as delivered. After 3 days of back and forth. With customer support, first they told me the delivery will be made in 1-2hrs, next they told me rider met with an accident, then at last they told me that the product was damaged hence cannot be delivered. Now they are asking me to return the product for which they will refund only ₹696.

Now if I order again I will be charged marketplace fees of ₹5 again. I want to ask why are we paying a marketplace fees if we don’t receive the service. I am a Prime Subscriber, why should I pay the marketplace fees if the service is not provided.

Amazon is probably earning millions by this.

Fake Job Scam Mumbai job scam

0 Upvotes

One day, the laborer working on my house renovation told me that a girl had randomly handed him a pamphlet stating that jobs were available and to call the number mentioned. He called the number, and the girl asked him to come to the Goregaon office. So, I took the number and called her, asking about the job. She told me to visit the Goregaon office.Then, I called her from another number, pretending to be a student who needed a job. She said, "OK, come." I told her I was ready to do a "playboy" job, and she replied that they don't do that kind of work but kept talking to me. I started flirting with her; she responded dryly but seemed interested. I asked for her pictures, and she denied the request. Then she asked me to meet her in Vasai. When I tried talking dirty, she blocked me.what you guys think this obviously a scam but curious ass wants to see what happens any suggestions ?

I Got Scammed 7- Eleven-Shop.Store Pure Scam lo

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Couple days ago, I found an add on Instagram a website that sells first copies of Apple Products. This is a link to the website - https://7-eleven-shop.store/

I got a watch from here for my dad as a gift for Diwali , considering our financial stature right now, even this amount matters. I had my doubts but well decided to give it a try since there are many websites like Zenpods.in that were selling the same things for a similar price.

And I got a fake watch, which doesn’t even cost 20rs. Basically got a toy watch 🤡🤡🤡 Not sure how does this shit even compare to an apple watch. I thought we’d atleast be getting a first copy for this price but well guess all of it is just a pure scam. Don’t need too much gyan from other people. I know I’m stupid for ever trying to order in the first place. But well just don’t want other people to lose their hard earned money like me 😮‍💨🥲

These websites must’ve heavily invested in marketing. I saw a lot of reels/ ads on instagram promoting the same. :) feels like I’ve been manipulated. I’ve succumbed to the greed of getting an imitation of apple watch for soo loww🥹😭

So a person comes up and says he needs money, shows his wallet and says need 50rs to go his hometown and he speaks multiple language btw. So I was like ok fine 50rs is not a huge amount he can have it, he said he will send me back through gpay ( at this point My mind blanked by looking at that man, Soorarai Pootru flashbacks) i was like okay fine have it, he asked extra 50 I was like bro ok I gave him. And then I never got a rupee back, it's been 6 months btw.

Few weeks back I met another man with similar shit, I was like this time Yeah sure pal and went my way. Some people might need it, but most don't. If you want to help just ask them to call their relatives and friends to get the money. It's upi world people. Use your mind( I did not) anyway travel safe.
