Mysuru: V.V. Puram Police have arrested a woman who had cheated e-commerce giant Amazon India to the tune of Rs.1.17 lakh by making numerous online purchases and returning substandard or cheap copies. The arrested woman is Ashwini alias Manorama of Jayalakshmipuram. She used to order expensive items from Amazon and claim refunds for the delivered products after returning their inexpensive duplicates.
On Dec.9, she placed an order under the name Manorama with Amazon for a pair of jeans pant and the seller promptly delivered it to her on Dec.18. Immediately, Ashwini returned the pants and claimed that it was defective and does not match her order specifications. She thought that the online system will accept her fraud.
