Two men from Hyderabad, Yahiya Mohd Ishaque and his brother-in-law Mohd Shahroz Ansari cheated e-commerce giants Amazon and Flipkart by ordering electronic goods online but not paying for them. Even more shockingly, this fraud went on for four months till they both were arrested by the local police.
They ordered mobile phones, laptop, DVDs, camera, etc. from these e-commerce sites. At the time of the delivery of order, one person used to keep the delivery boy engaged in chat while the other one took the packet inside making an excuse that he was going to bring the debit card.
Inside the house, the packet was skillfully opened, the good was taken out and in the place of good, sand of equal weight was filled and it was repacked as earlier.
After that, the second person came out with the debit card which showed no balance and then they apologized to the delivery boy who took back the packet with him.
In this manner, they stole many mobile phones, DVD player, laptop, camera and surprisingly a bike too.
Ishaque was a master in repacking the goods and he was also a registered online dealer for books with Amazon. Both of them have been taken into custody now.
