Cash on Delivery Scam from Meesho

Hello Fellow Dimers,

Writing this post so that my fellow Dimers be aware of a Cash on Delivery scam that runs now a days via meesho. So the scenario is random sellers of Meesho are having Huge address database they fetched from amazon . they will send some scrap/old clothes to these addresses as Cash on delivery and via meesho app. 

If you are unware of this Scam or might think that your wife may have ordered or parents may have ordered and will accept the product upon delivery and pay the cash.

and there starts the Headache, Once you open the package it will be just a waste peace of cloth . I happened to recieve a Cash on delivery order of 444 rs where in i am not even having a meesho account. I complained them in twitter and they asked me to create a meesho account and also they are arranging a reverse pickup. the Order was picked up from me but its been 3 months i am chasing them for Cashback.

Now meesho has blocked me in Twitter and there CEO also restricted me in twitter.

Reasearching in twitter i came to know that i am not the only person but others also facing the same .

Curious how are they getting so many address , my address in COD order was ditto same of my amazon default shipping address.

Sharing here so that everyone will be cautious about this one.

Almost happened with me. Luckily, It was me who opened the door, & only I place order at my house, be it milk or mobile. Delivery boy said order is from Meesho. I remembered that I have done no COD transactions. I still checked app if I ordered something, nothing. I said I haven't ordered anything it's a mistake & rejected. Safe!

Even i never order any product with Cash on delivery , but unfortunately when the Delivery person came my wife opened the door and she paid the money as i was in meeting and later when we opened the package we got surprised. there was no bill in the package i happened to figured out its a meesho delivery by checking with delhivery and later calling there customer care.
pretty much i have spend efforts of rs 1000 to get 444 back. now i have given up and not going to run behind them again.

Very common scam on Meesho. Happened with me too recently - saw the sender address and rejected.

I got a trick from an insta reel to see how are they getting your data.

In your shipping addresses, give your name as 

Akhil Amazon on Amazon

Akhil Flipkart on Flipkart

Akhil Tatacliq on Tata cliq

So when you get a courier like that or a random call selling something, or random email with such a name you know where it is getting leaked from

Meesho is a place of fraudsters and scammers. I installed the app recently and ordered few items as I saw cheap prices there compared to Amz/Fk. To my surprise each and every product delivered was fake or 2nd hand copy. While ordering I had chosen M trusted and 4* still got fake products. Even though I was able to return all those but my experience is not good at all and subsequently uninstalled it not to use ever again.

P.S : my wife still uses that 3rd grade app🤪

Please remove this before she sees it.

Else she might give you the eye.

(That look, which says: yeah! And I am 'still' married to you too).

How did you trust this meesho ? If you are creating new account and order from someone else account and if return happens he will receive the refund not you. 

COD is a big scam in meesho many time warned in desidime

Never ordered from cod on jiomart

And almost all time got full order

While taking order i count in front of delivery boy , if something is missing (very rare) they note it and refund from their side after reaching station back. 

One or times i got extra items also. In my case jiomart was better.. but now using BB bcoz of neocoins

Yeah Agree Meesho products are of cheap quality...  but here the culprit is not  Meesho... OP shouldn't have paid for the order. I received an COD order from flipkart and when my parents called I asked them not to pay as i never place cod orders..  The flipkart delivery boy threatened that they will never deliver in this address again.. and later they marked it as delivered...  Later i reliased that during the sale i had prebooked something which they shipped even without payment... But the same product was available cheaper when sale started... 😄

It’s getting leaked from the delivery warehouse. Also through third party delivery services.
