Financial cyber fraud is reported first on 1930 so the destination account can be flagged, then at cybercrime.gov.in. The complaint is routed to the state police cyber cell and, where an FIR is needed, to the police station with jurisdiction over the victim\'s address. If the police decline to register it, a judicial magistrate can direct registration under section 175(3) BNSS.
The applicable law is the IT Act 2000 read with the BNS 2023 and BNSS 2023 — identity theft and impersonation under sections 66C and 66D, cheating under section 318 BNS, stalking and harassment under section 78 BNS, and obscene publication under sections 67 and 67A of the IT Act.
Look for someone who handles cyber crime as a practice area rather than occasionally: IT Act and BNSS experience, a clear view on whether your matter is police, bank or civil, and a written engagement. Advocate Panchanand Shaw practices cyber crime, financial fraud and NRI law from Kolkata and appears before the Calcutta High Court and district courts.
Yes. Complaints are filed online, evidence moves digitally, and hearings in another state are handled through the local bar or by video where the court permits. Most matters never need you to travel.
Call 1930 immediately and report at cybercrime.gov.in, then inform your bank in writing. The freeze request raised in the first hours is what makes recovery possible.
The first conversation is free. Fees are quoted after the facts are reviewed, based on the forum and the work involved.
Tell me what happened and I will tell you what to file, where, and by when. First conversation is free.
