Online shopping oddity

Yesterday I placed order for a mouthwash via Big Basket. The item was delivered. But I  was shocked to find that the plastic bottle containing the mouthwash neither had a seal with it nor inside it. It was as if some one had opened it earlier. Moreover, the liquid was only 4/5 th of the bottle. I regret that I wasted my money in buying this product. I tried to provide a link to the online advertisement but the product is removed from the list. However let me attach a photo of the product as shown below:


I wasted Rs 157.25 on this unreliable product. I am writing this post to let readers to be careful when doing online shopping.
