A.Dear Client,
Firstly, reach out to the bank where your account is held and inquire about the reason for the freeze. Banks typically freeze accounts in response to legal or regulatory issues. If the freeze is due to a complaint filed in Pune, Maharashtra, you may need to contact the relevant authorities in Pune, such as the local police or the office handling financial crimes. Provide any necessary documentation or information requested by the authorities to resolve the complaint. Simultaneously, keep communication open with your bank, informing them about the steps you are taking to address the issue. Once the matter is resolved and the authorities lift the freeze, your bank will be able to unfreeze your account.

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 scams or complaints online and once a cyber crime scam is reported online to NCCRP, on the instruction of Cyber Crime Cell, investigating team started the routine process of investigation immediately freezing the suspected accounts of fraudsters and the victim's Bank account and you have to wait for the completion of the investigation of the scam by the investigating agency. The length of time it takes to investigate a cybercrime can vary greatly depending on the complexity of the case, the resources available to the investigators, and the cooperation of the victim. In general, cybercrime investigations can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months or even years. You can also register a complaint of cybercrime at https://www.cybercrime.gov.in/ to check the updated status of a complaint. You may consult with a cyber crime expert for further guidance and steps.
