A.Dear Client,
In such cases, it's advisable to report the incident to your local law enforcement authorities or cybercrime cell. Provide them with all the relevant details, including transaction history and any communication you had with the party involved. Additionally, consult with a legal professional to understand the potential legal recourse available to you. Be cautious about sharing personal and financial information online and thoroughly research any online job offers to avoid such situations in the future.
Thankyou

A.Dear Client,
You become the victim of online data entry fraud scam by default. 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 and if required they can contact and call you to record your statement or for filing relevant documents. You need to get in touch with the Cybercrime Cell of your district or state seeking their necessary action in the matter. 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/ and track the status of your complaint online. You may consult with a cyber crime expert for further guidance and steps.
