A.Dear Client,
The National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal(NCCRP) is an initiative of the Government of India to facilitate victims/complainants to report cybercrime including cryptocurrency scams or complaints online. However, when one is a victim of scams and frauds while trading in cryptocurrency, is advised that when any suspicious activity is detected in a trader’s exchange wallet, they should contact the customer service of that exchange, and voice their concern with the representatives as a precautionary measure to seek justice in India. So, once a cyber crime involving cryptocurrency trading is reported online to NCCRP, on the instruction of Cyber Crime Cell, the victim's Bank account is frozen/inoperative putting a lien on the account by the Bank and you have to wait for the completion of the investigation of the scam by the investigating agency. you may visit the cyber crime cell and the Police Station for further clarifications and necessary guidance in the matter and extend your full cooperation to get yourself free from any scam ASAP.

A.Dear Client,
Continue to cooperate with the police investigation. Provide any evidence or information you have related to the scam, such as transaction records, chat logs, and any other documentation that might help in the investigation. Contact your bank and inform them about the fraudulent IMPS transfer. They may be able to assist in the investigation and provide guidance on any potential recourse. They can also help you block further transactions if needed.
