Let us tell you, shopkeepers do this taking advantage of the crowd. In such a situation, no matter how crowded it is, be careful while purchasing goods.

Rate the goods and cross check.
During Diwali and Dussehra shopping, the price of every item in the market is sky high. Therefore, shopkeepers fool many customers and sell low priced items at double the rate. In such a situation, you may suffer a lot of loss. If you are buying any item these days, first cross check the rates with other shops, so that you can avoid spending unnecessary money.

gift card scam
These days, you will find many such stalls in the market, which will offer gift cards and in return will ask you to fill a form, in which your important details will be asked. Let us tell you, in such a situation, scammers obtain your personal details and then misuse these details.

Be careful while buying goods at wholesale price
If you are buying goods at wholesale price from other markets including Chandni Chowk, Sadar Bazaar, then it is important to keep a close eye on the goods these days. In most of the cases, it is seen that people are getting scammed while buying bulk goods during the festival season. Because the shopkeeper packs fake goods and takes more money in return. Therefore, when you carry a lot of luggage, get it packed in front of your eyes and do not trust anyone.
