money not refunded scam

I had registered with Mumbai Rangers in June 2016 for a trip to Kolad which involved river rafting. However, the event got cancelled weekend after weekend due to heavy rains, due to which I finally couldn’t attend it. All the participants were thus told, they can either attend it in coming weekends or just ask for the refund. No time limit was specified; Neither does it say anything clearly about time limits on their refund policy online.
Geeting back to the point, I have mailed them and contacted the concerned person via mobile, numerous times since July 2016. I also sent him reminders via whatsapp a few times.
Over the time I contacted him, I was told that he is out on some trip and that he will get back to me after checking the records.
No mention of time lapse. At all.
After a while I forgot about it, as anyone would due to busy schedules and life.
I remembered it again somehow, on 3rd Jan 2017.
I called up. The reply I got left me flabbergasted.
The said concerned person told me that the money gets refunded within 10days automatically and even if not, no claims are entertained after 3 months duration of the event. (An event which never happened!)
When I started to explain to him how may times I have contacted him these months and that he never said a word referring to his “policy” so far, he says their “policy” also says no arguments will be entertained and cuts the call.
This definitely looks like a scam to me.

  1. Even I had a similar kind of experience with Mumbai Rangers. While Doing Water Rappelling I had given My watch to one of their leader and forgot with them. later he called me and said to collect it from Amit Bhadoria but this cheater never returned it since from one year.
    One should file FIR case against this man and get him arrested.
