Hmm seems like a serious problem and top of that, Localbitcoin's customer service
is fumbling lately.
I trade there and on Paxful as well.
A bit disappointing if they cannot put him away.

Mobile number of this new fraud is: +91 9874941221
> Name: Shaksham (as he claims)
He contacted me on Whatsapp and collected my ICICI bank details. After 20 minutes, he sent me a screenshot of payment Rs.164000/-, which is transferred to my bank account. Everything was perfect with the screenshot also. Within seconds I got an sms from icici bank saying my account is credited 164000 INR.
Immediately copied his wallet address as I promised him instant transaction, and proceeded with bitcoin payment. Suddenly.
I took a pause.
How can he send IMPS payment from ICICI to ICICI? Because in the sms IMPS reference number was clearly mentioned. Take a look at the pic below.
http://prntscr.com/fkx14z
I logged into my netbanking account. Buh! Nothing was there.
The sms was sent from some other website. Lucky I am. Would have lost 0.84 btc, in a matter of seconds.
Lesson: Always login to your netbanking account for confirming a payment receipt. Never trust the sms you receive. Beware of these frauds guys. Safe trading.

Always check 2nd sms or where total balance of account show. Unknown person will never know how much fund is there.
Yeah!

Once bitcoin has some kind of moderation / legal standing in India, only then can scammers like Deepak Chawla be put to rest, because then the cops and courts would take the matter more seriously. Right now bitcoin is considered play money. This guy has been scamming for years now without any action being taken against him.
This guy just tried to message me on whatsapp and asked me if he could buy btc worth 12K without knowing the rates 
I was lucky enough to search for his number on google before trading and thankfully got to this thread
Below is the chat with him:

Can we please all get together and do something about Deepak Chawla ?
I mailed subvolatil a few days ago but haven't heard back. Lets do it for the sake of Indian bitcoin community.
Would love to see the look on his face when he is caught

Deepak Chawla still on the loose.
Scammed my friend off 7.5k
Current Number - 9899733116
He will contact you through whatsapp and will sell bitcoins at a really cheap rate.
Initially he will also deliver those bitcoins but as the orders get larger he will run away with the money.
He currently claims to be the user dscotese from localbitcoins to gain trust and scam people.

This happened last week so be aware.
I'm up for going after him again if enough people get together. Had a short convo with Aayush also and he said that he was unsuccessful in his 2014 FIR attempt.

Fucking guy placed a order on my friends ad and then marked payment as completed then sent her a sms from fake sms service that my IMPS payment got credited, when she said she didn't got funds, asshole said he's calling branch manager, within 2 minute she got call from second mobile number and he said hes calling from Axis bank and her funds got credited lol
Now funny thing is,she used my mobile number for communication.
This asshole also asked me to send coins/money to him first some months ago. . lol
I will keep updating this thread with more details soon.
Lol that smart ass bitch. Beware of such scammers.
Maybe Dizz never got him blocked on LBC, must have been busy with the local cops.
Hi guys,
This is dizz from lbc. This is my first post here.
Came through a hard situation recently.
Check this profile:
https://localbitcoins.com/p/vimalbbm/
This guy opened a trade with me on 15th-April-2015. He made the payment (Rs.9200/-) within minutes and I provided him the bitcoins almost instantly. His profile was looking decent so I didn't asked him for screenshots or anything.
Later after 10 days, I got call from another guy who claimed that the money was taken from his account and he will be filing an official complaint to the police regarding this. I didn't believed what he said first. (How come money can be stolen from one's account without his knowledge? Atleast they will be asking for OTPs right.) Anyway, as I was confused, I just suggested him to go ahead with police complaint.
Later on June 18, I got call from Gujarat Crime Branch and also received an official notice demanding the details of the transaction. My bank account was also blocked meanwhile. I have provided all the details what I have and explained everything to the police over phone/email.
On the same day(15-04-2015) of this guy's trade with me. He has opened trade with few more people in localbitcoins and have sent payment to them also. He has taken approximately 50000rs from that account. And it was transferred to different mmids and mobile number, each amount is below 5000 (I received 5000+4200). Investigation is still going on.
This guys profile was ID verified and had almost 6 real name verification. So, my point is, it doesn't matter how much good the profile looks like always be careful while dealing in lbc.
Regards,
Dizz

i wonder why this guy still not banned in LBC ....
Yes things are getting bad. I usually ask for an ID and also call up the person before the trade. But its not helpful in every case. I had a friend who had a police case because of this.
One thing I recommend is not showing your bank account details right before the trade on the advertisement page.
If any traders are members here, please post of ways to prevent this other than mentioned above.

Actually there is nothing you can be 100% sure. Even some people do IMPS themselves and complaint to bank that they did not did that. SO there will be always some risk involve.
The IMPS scam is currently running on LBC.
Be very careful, ask for ID and cross veirify that its the right person doing the transfer.
I am about to change my terms of trade to do this.
Stopping cash deposit above 10,000 as well.
Bitcoins are a grey/undefined area as per Indian law, if your bank account has a significant amount and gets frozen/blocked. The process to get it back is very tiring and ends up causing higher monetary/time loss than the paper thin margins people are usually working on.
