Fraud Alert Karachi
Hello Dear Pak Wheelers. I would like to share Fraud Alert I must say a white collar Organized crime by some decent educated Guys.
I am not very much into cars as I have a company Owned car maintained by HONDA Site so zero links with mechanics. I recently sold my personal Suzuki Alto to buy a corolla GLI 2009-2010 model with max budget up to 1.2 million. On Sunday I was looking at Dawn Classified in search of a decent car. I finally found an add which according to me was not from a car dealer I am attaching Picture of add for the reference of all readers.
I called this No and some one answered the phone & said Dr. sahabia is at national Medical center you can visit here. I live nearby so I thought to check the car. When I reached at the spot there were almost 8 people checking the car and praising the car and negotiating with the Guy (Son of Dr Shazia Naz) That guy was seemed a bit pissed with those dealers. One of the dealer was Offering him 11,35,000/- with some cash in his hand as Token money but that guy (Son of Dr Shazia Naz ) was refusing him that I don?t want to sell this car to any dealer because you guys don?t Transfer the car on your name and it?s a headache.
I was amazed to see the entire situation and called One of my Office Colleague who himself is a Part time car dealer. I told him the situation and He said Bhai don?t let the Car Go If a dealer is showing such interest that means Car is in Good condition
In the mean time that Guy (Son of Dr Shazia Naz ) left the place saying me that I am selling this car to the dealer in 11,40,000 as he is Paying me cash by evening. I Stopped him and said 11,45,000 from my side and will pay you Cash by evening. So he said Ok get in the car lets go to some other place to talk as Dealer is Pain in *** here. I handed over Rs. 5000 as Token Amount as I just had that in my Pocket at that time. So we went to his Home some 300meters away from National Hospital.
His home was huge bungalow under Renovation and there were many other cars and bikes were present there on Asking He claimed that He Usually rent out this place for Drama Shooting named ?Zindgee Gulzar hai? So these cars are of those shooting Guys so I was Impressed with it.
I asked for the Running Paper and He Said that Currently I don?t have the paper, you don?t need to worry I?ll whatsapp you the Picture so you could verify things.
So I was Satisfied with all this and went back home happily. Now It was time to gather so much Cash I Started Making Calls to arrange Cash before evening. I rang my elder brother and told him the whole Situation. He said avoid Cash and get the Car checked by some professional First. Than My Brother with his Friend came to my place as they smelled some Fraud in it. So he said ring that Guy and tell him We are coming with the cash so bring all the Original Documents with him. When I Ring the Car selling Guy He Said I am out with friends now and will be back after Magrib. So We had to wait till Magrib now. After Magrib Prayer We went to his home without informing him when we reached there. The Dealer (who was Offering him Token) Car was there. So we waited to check what?s happening We Take a round and came Back again after 5 mins than Dealer Car was not there and Car I Purchased was there. I Stepped Out of my car and Knocked the Door and a Guy came Out. I asked about the lady Doctor?s Son who told me his name was Jhangir. The person Replied There is no jhangir at this place. I asked about the car who?s car is this? He said I don?t know may be Some guest is here. I was shocked to hear all this suddenly that Son of so called Dr Shazia Naz came on the Bike from somewhere.
I asked about the Car?s Documents he said He don?t have it right now It will be here in any minute. In the mean time my brother?s friend start checking the car and it was Repainted from all sides according to him He showed many signs of over spray on rubbers and some Tape marks at edges of Doors which was not noticeable for a common man like me. He claimed that Car is full original which was not so I demanded my Token money back but He refused so my brother shouted at me to leave the Token money and get in the car. We just went away from that place having an Idea of planned Robbery in mind.
So Guys I don?t know I am still confused what was that A planned Robbery game or there was some Issue in the car because of which they were not showing the documents.
I thanked Allah for saving me from this so I took an hour last night to write all this to Inform all from this kind of scam.
May Allah save us all
