Online Fraud Transaction Online Fraud Transaction

4 months ago

I made a transaction of ₹10 lakhs to a Fraudster and lost everything. I have reported it to the cyber crime and got the FIR as well. Cyber crime investigated and informed me that there was no balance at all in that account and even in the accounts to which the transfers were made. But they created a hold on all the accounts linked to it. They said nothing can be done now.
Please help me on how to recover my hard earned money? It was my 5 years of savings.

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 and you have to wait for the completion of the investigation of the scam by the investigating agency and in the course of the investigation 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.

A.Dear Client,
I'm not a legal expert, but if you've already reported the incident to cybercrime and have an FIR, you may want to consider consulting with a lawyer who specializes in cybercrime or financial fraud. They can guide you on potential legal avenues to pursue, such as filing a complaint in the appropriate court. Additionally, reaching out to your bank and providing them with the relevant documents could be crucial. However, the chances of recovering lost funds in such cases can be challenging, and professional legal advice tailored to your specific situation would be essential in exploring any possible remedies or actions against the fraudster.
Thankyou
