Repeat Scam from RAJASTHAN : A Wake-Up Call for Online Sellers
Three months ago, I was actively selling my products on Meesho. Everything was going fine until I started receiving wrong returns and frequent RTOs (Return to Origin). After checking multiple orders, I noticed something strange — all the fake returns were from one location: Rajasthan.
At first, I thought maybe the problem was with Meesho’s third-party courier partners. But when all the issues were coming from just one city, it was clear this wasn’t a random problem — it was a pattern.
So I decided to stop selling on Meesho and moved to Amazon, hoping for a more secure experience.
But guess what? The same issue started again — wrong returns from Jodhpur.
This is how the scam works:
The buyer places an order.
They request a replacement — which Amazon allows easily.
Once they receive the second item, they initiate a return.
But the return package contains something else — a cheap item, an empty box, or sometimes nothing.
Amazon gives them a full refund, and they now have two products for free.
This means the seller (me) loses not only the product but also money spent on shipping, handling, and packaging.
This is clearly a planned scam happening in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, and it is hurting genuine sellers. If platforms like Amazon and Meesho, and local authorities, do not take this seriously now, more sellers will suffer huge losses in the future.
I’m sharing this so other sellers stay alert. And I request both platforms and law enforcement to investigate this issue before it grows even bigger.
