First steps after a cyber fraud
Report immediately on the National Cyber Crime Helpline 1930 and on cybercrime.gov.in, inform your bank, and preserve every screenshot, transaction ID and message. Quick reporting improves the chance of the money being put on hold. We then help with the written complaint, FIR, follow-up with the cyber cell and recovery steps.
Electronic evidence
Screenshots, emails, chats and bank statements are often the heart of a cyber case. Under the Bharatiya Sakshya Adhiniyam, 2023, electronic records need proper certification to be relied upon in court, so they should be preserved in their original form.
Frequently asked questions
Can money lost in UPI fraud be recovered?
