About Cybercrime & Online Fraud Law
If you've fallen victim to online fraud, you're probably feeling lost and worried about your money. I get it. Most people panic and think it’s all gone, but sach bataun (honestly), there’s a way to fight back with the right steps.
What to Do First
- Act fast. Block your cards and online transactions immediately by calling your bank.
- Dial 1930, the National Cybercrime Helpline. File a complaint and keep that complaint number safe.
- Email a detailed complaint to your bank’s head office and CC the RBI. This puts pressure on the bank and creates a formal record.
Collect Strong Evidence
- Gather every bit of proof: chat screenshots, call logs, transaction details, reference numbers, and a full written account.
- Pro tip: Delete the scammer’s saved name from WhatsApp before taking screenshots so their real number shows up. Judges and police trust numbers more than nicknames.
Scams I See All the Time
- eSIM swap scam legal help: Scammers hijack your SIM and steal all your OTPs.
- Call merging scams: They trick you into connecting your bank’s automated OTP call.
- Credit card fraud legal recovery: I help make sure banks don’t charge interest on disputed transactions or mess up your CIBIL score.
If Your Account Gets Frozen
- Often, police freeze your whole account for a small disputed amount. I rely on a Madras High Court ruling that says only the disputed amount should be frozen, and I fight to unfreeze your remaining balance.
How I Help
- I hold banks accountable if they mess up their duty.
- I use recent court judgments and banking rules to push for your financial recovery.
- From collecting evidence to representing you, I guide you at every step, so you don’t get bullied by the system.
