Link shared with scammer by mistake Link shared with scammer by mistake

1 year ago

Sir, By mistake a link ( which came as a text message) shared with scammer due to which huge amount of money has been deducted from bank account. When the FIR was filed, my father said he has not shared any link or OTP with the scammer. But after thinking about it for 3 days he said he might have shared the link by mistake as he was busy with other work. My father is a senior citizen person and not very tech friendly. But the case has been already registered in cyber cell and local police station. So should he confess to cyber cell and bank that he has shared the link? Will it affect our case? The case has been registered within 3 hours of fraudulent transaction.
