There have been several instances in the past few days of wrong products being delivered to e-commerce consumers. Recently, a student of IIM Ahmedabad ordered a laptop during Flipkart’s Big Billion Days Sales for his father, but received “Ghadi” detergent bars instead. Now, a similar incident has occurred in Bihar in which a man ordered a drone camera from Meesho, but received potatoes.
Yes, you read that right. When his order arrived, the man made an unboxing video of the parcel, as he felt suspicious. He asked the delivery agent to open the package, after which it is revealed that the parcel contains potatoes. In the video, the distressed buyer accuses the company of cheating him.
As per India Today, the buyer is Chetan Kumar, a businessman from Nalanda’s Parwalpur. According to reports, Meesho has said that it has initiated a refund and is further investigating the matter.
The clip has been shared on Twitter. Have a look at this video here:

A viewer claimed in the comment section that he had also been cheated by Meesho, who sent him a polyester shirt instead of the one he had ordered.
Mesho se koi bhi order karne par product change karke bhej deta hai
Mere saath bhi hua tha…
Kuchh din pahle.
Maine suti Shirt order kiya tha.
Mujhe polister shirt pack karke bhej diya wo bhi bina sila hua.

Some questioned the man on how he first grew suspicious.
How did he know that box contains potato and not drone he ordered without opening it??

Others shared similar instances of incorrect deliveries by Flipkart and Amazon
I faced similar issue on @amazon. ordered three items Chocolat, Gym equipment, and harddisk. Choco was delivered first and i was told that other products will come seperately too. Gym equipment came then, i thought harddisk will come later. But it was in it , i hav not got it yet

Many cases of such fraud have been reported before. A man from Mumbai named Ashok Bhambhani recently ordered a OnePlus 10T smartphone for Rs. 54,999 from Amazon, but he ended up receiving an Exo dish-washing bar instead. He had made this purchase during the “Amazon Great Indian Sale”. Similarly, a customer named Arpit Mehrotra ordered an Apple watch but received a Noise watch instead.
