The press statement that has been going around town from OLX is actually the wrong one, and this is the genuine reaction from the agency. See below:
This
is an unfortunate situation and our sympathies go out to the victim and their
family. OLX is an online classifieds site that brings buyers and sellers
together to promote trade. We take steps to moderate and review all ads
but we do not participate in the negotiations between buyers and sellers.
Transactions are performed directly between both parties. In all our marketing
campaign, we continuously urge our users to take necessary precautionary checks
when using OLX.

negative incidents. We also need our users to help us kick out bad players and
ask them to report any dubious activity or user on the site for immediate action.

facilitate the quick reunion of the 3 children with their family.
