A.Dear Client,
Telegram fraud refers to any malicious or deceitful activity that takes place on the Telegram messaging app. The types of fraud conducted on the app can often include financial scams, phishing attempts, and other types of activity targeting users to provide their personally identifiable information (PII). In addition, Telegram has become a hotbed for selling malware, discussions of cybercrime and other high-risk activity. Despite your reporting of the scam to the cyber crime cell and the concerned Bank if you do not get any positive response, you may bring the matter to the notice of the Chairman, of the State Human Rights Commission and the State Police Complaint Authority, which are independent bodies empowered to investigate complaints against police authorities to speed up the investigation of the reported cybercrime. You may consult with a cyber crime expert or an Advocate who practices cyber laws for guidance and steps/

A.Dear Client,
In case of UPI fraud, you can report it to the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal (NCRP) online or to your nearest cyber crime cell. Further, on the instruction of the Cyber Crime Cell, the investigating team starts the routine process of investigation and directs the concerned bank to freeze the accounts of the suspected fraudster and victim to conduct the investigation. It is advisable to enquire about the same in your respective bank. The cybercrime investigation varies greatly depending on the complexity of the case. So, you have to wait till the completion of the investigation.
Hope it helps.
Thank you.
