Buffalo gone in water… This idiom is usually used when we feel that some of our efforts or endeavors have failed and will no longer have any effect on it. Something similar happened with a dairy operator living in Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh, when he saw an advertisement of buffalo in online shopping. A big fraud happened to him in the name of buffalo.

There has been a lot of increase in online shopping in the last few years. There are many apps, websites and mobile numbers for online shopping. Till now you must have seen and heard about ordering clothes, shoes, cosmetic items, medicines or gadgets online, but now online shopping has expanded. People have also started purchasing animals online, but a similar case has come to light from Rae Bareli, Uttar Pradesh, where a buffalo was purchased online. However, this purchase was not successful and a big fraud took place in the name of buffalo.

This is how online buffalo order was done

If you have done online shopping then you must be aware that before ordering the goods, advertisements and pictures of its features are shown. Apart from this, the price of that thing is also written. Everything was similar in the purchase of this buffalo also. Actually, Sunil Kumar, a dairy businessman in Tanda village of Rae Bareli, saw a video of buffalo on YouTube. In this video, along with the breed of buffalo, its health, it was claimed to give 18 liters of milk daily. Along with this, a number was also given to buy the buffalo online, by calling which the buffalo could be purchased online. Sunil Kumar, who runs a dairy farm, called on that number and ordered a buffalo and this call became his biggest mistake.

Here is the story of the entire fraud

Actually, this number belonged to someone Shubham from Jaipur, who was calling himself a cattle trader. Sunil asked about the buffalo and Shubham confirmed that this buffalo gives 18 liters of milk daily and its price is Rs 55,000. To buy this you will have to pay Rs 10,000 in advance immediately. Seeing the easy price of a buffalo giving 18 liters of milk, Sunil Kumar did not look back and forth and directly paid Rs 10,000. Next day when the buffalo did not come, Sunil Kumar called back, on which he was told that he would have to pay Rs 25 thousand more. Explained that I will make the full payment, due to non-payment Shubham blocked Sunil’s number. After being cheated in online shopping, Sunil Kumar, who runs a dairy, has lodged a complaint about this fraud in the office of the Superintendent of Police. He has also demanded action.
