🚩 Red Flags to Watch For

💰

Commission Sharing

Classic lure. PASH Investment promised kickbacks to attract victims.

🔄

Terms Changed After Payment

0.5% → 1% post-booking. Any retroactive change is a red flag.

📄

Impossible Cheque Dates

Always verify printed vs issued date. Mismatch = deliberate fraud.

📱

Screenshots Only

Demand signed official documents. Screenshots are not valid proof.

🏃

Agents Go Unreachable

Both Rustagi agents disappeared after the fraud. Legitimate brokers don't vanish.

⚖️

No RERA Registration

PASH Investment agent RERA status unverified. Always check before transacting.

🛡️ How to Protect Yourself

1

Verify Broker Credentials First

Check RERA registration, ROC company records, and business licences. Search the name online.

2

Everything in Writing — No Verbal Deals

Signed contracts for every promise. Photograph all documents. Record calls where legal.

3

Pay Builder Directly — Never Brokers

Use only traceable bank transfers to verified builder accounts. Keep all receipts.

4

Verify Independently Before Committing

Visit property site alone. Confirm details with builder directly. Get a second agent's opinion.

🏙️ Common Gurgaon Fraud Patterns

🎭
Commission Kickback Scams

Promise to share commission, then deliver worthless cheques — the PASH Investment playbook.

📋
Fake Documentation

Forged signatures, impossible dates, invalid instruments — used to dodge payment obligations.

🔄
Bait and Switch

Attractive terms upfront, changed after payment. Creates leverage to force unfavourable conditions.

🌐
NRI Targeting

NRIs are targeted because distance makes legal action difficult — used in the PASH Investment case.

💸
Advance Fee Fraud

Upfront payments for "exclusive deals" or "guaranteed approvals" that never materialise.

🏢
Unregistered Brokers

Firms operate without RERA licences from impressive-sounding offices to appear legitimate.
