olx console scam

so I didn't actually get scammed (im not that dumb) but I'll tell how i ALMOST got scammed so that you guys can be safe. I was planning to have my dad buy me a ps4 pro, but since they ain't on Amazon (india) I can't get a unused one. but I found one on olx and told my dad to get it for me, but this guy was asking payment through scanner or something like that and my dad told absolutely not because those types of guys are scammers, then he blocked us. what a looser scammer xd
