First Steps After Online Fraud

If you've been scammed, time is critical. I've laid out the exact, non-negotiable steps you must take immediately to report the crime and begin the process of recovering your money. This includes who to call first and how to create a proper paper trail with your bank.

Know the Scams: How Fraudsters Operate

I break down the methods scammers use, from the new call merging and eSIM swap frauds to delivery scams. Understanding their tactics is the first step in protecting yourself and knowing how to explain what happened.

Your Rights When Your Bank Account is Frozen

Police often freeze your entire bank account, even for a small disputed amount. I use a key Madras High Court ruling to argue that only the disputed amount should be frozen, helping you regain access to the rest of your funds quickly.

Building Your Case: Evidence Collection

Strong evidence is crucial for winning your case. I provide practical tips, like how to properly take screenshots of chats for them to be admissible in court, and what documents to include in your formal complaints.

Holding Banks Accountable

Banks have a legal duty to cooperate with investigations and protect customers from unauthorized transactions. I use recent court judgments and RBI guidelines to hold banks liable when they fail in their responsibility.
