A.Dear Client,
Section 457 of the CrPC empowers a Magistrate to use their discretion to order the conditional release of the amount frozen under cyber scam. In this situation, the police seek a bond from the victim who needs to declare that he/she will pay 1. 5 times the refunded amount to the bank in case his/her claim is false or if other claims are made on the amount. Once this is done, the Magistrate executes an order to release the frozen amount to the applicant victim. So, file a petition under Section 457 CrPC in the jurisdictional court praying for an order for the release of frozen money and following the court's order, and on receipt of bond, the Investigating Officer of the Cyber Cell will follow up the matter with the banks and the amount is refunded to the accounts of the victims. If required, you may take the service of an Advocate for guidance and steps.

A.Dear client
Continue cooperating with the cybercrime authorities. Provide them with any additional information or documentation they may require. Follow up with them regularly for updates on the investigation. Inform your bank about the scam and the frozen account. Share any details you have about the incident. They may guide you on the next steps and the documentation needed to resolve the issue. Comply with your bank's procedures for resolving fraud cases. They may have specific forms or processes you need to follow. Provide them with any information or evidence they request.
