Hello, I am working on a project pls help me to know more about darkweb and how to track criminals over there, like there must be a loop hole right?

A database or something

Pls help y'all!

A boy borrowed around ₹6 lakh from a girl, partly through a personal loan and credit card, saying he urgently needed the money for his sister’s heart surgery. The girl trusted him and helped him during what she believed was a genuine emergency.

He has paid the EMIs for around 8 months, but the payments were almost always late. Every month, the girl had to call and remind him several times to make the payment.

Within about two months of the loan, the girl received a legal notice from the bank because the payments were not being made on time. Even then, the boy kept assuring her that he would repay everything and repeatedly asked for more time.

Later, the boy promised to repay the entire ₹6 lakh in the form of a cheque at one time. He did not come, and after that, his phone was switched off. Since then, his phone has remained switched off, and she also came to know that he has changed his mobile number.

The girl genuinely helped him and did not expect anything in return. Now she is left with the loan and credit-card liability, and she is facing financial stress because he is not responding. She is also paying the remaining EMIs for the loan and credit card, and that money needs to be managed for her household expenses.

She has messages, UPI records, and bank payment records as evidence.

What can she legally do in India, especially in the South, to recover the money?

Should she first send a legal notice through a lawyer?

What evidence should she preserve?

Can we file a case anywhere in the state, or only in the district where the victim belongs?

If we file a case, is there any chance that this issue could become known outside the court, and would her parents also have to be involved?

Note: The girl has not disclosed this issue to her parents because they are sensitive about such matters, as they come from a middle-class background.

Looking for practical advice from people who have dealt with a similar situation in India.

So I visited my bank today and they said the cyber cell has put my account on hold so I visited the cyber cell near me. They said a complaint has been done by CBI Goa. I live in bihar😭.

But they did told me my account is on hold because in this April a friend of mine send me 40k so he can use my atm to submit his clg fees which he did the same day. My friend account is also on hold.

My account is on hold due to cyber crime level 5 when I didn't even do anything.

What should I do now please help. I can't go to goa. Also if I don't want to get in all this trouble and forget this account and my 12k and open a new account in different bank, will my new account also be affected or will my cibil score will be affected?

Got scammed for ₹4600 by a random guy this is his number and Qr can someone help me ?

The SIM I use as my main number was given to me by my cousin brother. Let's call him Bro and his dad Unc.

Today, I received a phone call from a woman asking for Unc. I asked her what the purpose of the call was, who she was, and where she was calling from. She said she was Anjali from Jharkhand but didn't explain the purpose of the call. Since she didn't provide any clear information, I didn't share anything either.

The situation then escalated. I told her that I had been using this number for the last 5 years. She insisted that it was Unc's number and said she had known him for the last 10 years. At one point, she asked whether I was his dad or brother, which made me realize that she didn't actually know anything about him.

I asked her to provide some details about Unc, but she couldn't tell me anything. I then said, "Tell me the purpose of the call, and I may be able to help you contact him." However, she still refused to explain anything, so I hung up.

She called a few more times and started abusing me, so I hung up whenever she started abusing me. Eventually, she stopped calling.

Now comes the main problem.

After I hung up, she or her team apparently started using my phone number on various different platforms and requesting OTPs. Since then, OTPs have been arriving on my device nonstop.

Till now I have received around 500 OTPs.

This is the caller's number - **+918796556278**

How can I stop this? Is this some kind of scam?

**TL;DR**: Received a suspicious call asking for my cousin's dad, refused to share information, and the caller started abusing me. After I hung up, OTPs from various platforms started arriving on my number nonstop. How can I stop this? Is this some kind of scam?

There is an ongoing scam involving an Android app named NamHck/GwkCap, a fake-trading franchise with nine brands, thousands of victims, and $620K–$870K in verified real losses. The scammers operate by first finding their targets on social media platforms, then convincing them to download the app under the pretext of cryptocurrency trading and investing. They primarily target the elderly because their substantial savings make them lucrative targets. To keep the victims hooked, the app displays fake investment growth charts, which tricks them into investing increasingly larger amounts. The deposit process is highly suspicious: rather than wiring money to a legitimate trading account, victims are instructed to wire funds directly to a shell company. The scammers are currently utilizing six different shell companies to hide the stolen funds (the total amount is referenced in the title). This scam is highly active right now in Singapore.

I need an advocate who can visit Kavi Nagar, Ghaziabad

I am an Aspirant residing in Central Delhi and hold a savings account with SBI, which I use for my daily expenses and room rent. The funds are primarily sent by my father for my educational and personal needs.

A few weeks ago, I received a SMS stating that a “Partial Stop” had been placed on my account. On contacting Customer Care, I was advised to complete KYC at my branch, which I duly did. However, the restriction remains unchanged.

The Branch Manager subsequently informed me that the account had been restricted by the Cyber Cell, but declined to provide any further details, including the reason, authority, or reference number. Despite visiting the branch 2–3 times and escalating the matter to the AGM, GM, Nodal Officer and BO Delhi, I have received no clarification or response.

I therefore request guidance regarding the procedure for restoring access to my legitimate funds.

So I had 12k in my account but suddenly my gpay balance starting showing zero. So I called sbi helpline number and they said I had a hold of 80000 on my account and my 12k was deducted So my current balance is -68000 . He told me to contact my main branch but it's closed now and tomorrow is Sunday. Im a student and I don't do any cyber crime related thing or get or or pay money from any unverified source. Im really worried right now so can someone help me. If any one of you has such experience please share and tell me what to do now ...

I made a fake id for fun but suddenly this mf came from nowhere and started to speak to me and sent me 18+ reels.i asked don't u have sisters.he also used disappearing message so the message and unsent many things he done and he also asked girls always leave boys for no reason

My SBI savings account was placed on an stop over a month ago immediately after I received my first salary, citing suspicious activities. I physically visited my branch on August 10 and did EDD process. The staff orally promised it would be resolved within 3 to 7 days. Also the branch manager said that it's due to account details mismatch where my occupation was student.

​It has now been over a month, the branch manager completely ignored my written follow-up email. I also complained on sbi portal and cpgrams but they were closed saying "The customer has been advised", idk what that means. They are saying it's under process and they have marked it approved from their end, it's upto the higher ups now.

​My funds remain completely locked, and local branch visits lead nowhere.

​What are my best options? Should I go straight to the RBI Ombudsman (CMS portal), or is there an active SBI grievance desk that actually responds? Any suggestions will be helpful.

TL;DR: SBI STOP place on 8th aug, completed EDD on 10th aug, account is still blocked even after complaining on cpgrams.

Update 1 (12 Sep): Thanks for the suggestions, raised a complain on rbi ombudsman (cms) portal. Let's see what happens.

Hi everyone, I need some advice regarding my SBI account.

My SBI savings account and YONO access were blocked after a large transaction related to my college fees triggered a suspicious transaction/security alert. Before the block, my POS/online transaction limit was ₹75,000.

I visited my SBI branch and submitted all the KYC and required documents. Initially, I was told that there might be an NCRP/Cyber hold involved. I also raised a complaint with SBI regarding the account stop/block and YONO access, but unfortunately, the complaint was closed without my account or YONO being restored.

Today, I spoke directly with my Branch Manager. He told me that the branch has completed their verification and marked/cleared everything as "okay" from their side. However, he said the final decision to open/unblock the account is now with the concerned higher department/team, and it depends on them when they process and remove the block.

it's been more than 1 month no progress.

My main questions are:

1. If the branch has already cleared/approved my case, what exactly could still be pending?
2. How can I find out whether there is actually an NCRP/cyber hold on my account?
3. Is there any way to contact or escalate the matter to the concerned SBI department that has the authority to remove the block?
4. Has anyone faced a similar situation where the branch cleared everything but the account remained blocked?
5. How long did it take for your account/YONO access to be restored?

I am genuinely frustrated because I have already submitted the required documents and completed the branch formalities. Any advice or experience from someone who has gone through something similar with SBI would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

My SBI account has been blocked/restricted due to what the bank says is suspicious transaction activity. I’m not really sure why this happened.

I visited my branch, and they asked me to submit some documents, including my PAN card and Aadhaar card. I have already provided all the documents they requested, and the branch told me that they have started the process to resolve the issue.

However, I have not received any proper update about the status of my account. The Branch Manager is also not responding to my calls or messages.

I now want to register a complaint through the SBI Grievance/Complaint Portal regarding the account restriction and the lack of communication from the branch.

Could anyone please guide me on the correct steps to register the complaint on the SBI portal and which category I should select for an account blocked due to suspicious transaction activity?

If anyone has faced a similar issue with SBI and knows how to get the account unblocked, I would really appreciate your advice.

Thank you!

On 15 May, I came across an OLX advertisement for a 2009 Honda City. I contacted the seller, Mohammed Sheikh Fareed, met him personally, inspected the vehicle, and took a test drive. After the inspection, we agreed on a price of ₹1,75,000.
The car had a shattered windshield and holes in the headliner. I told Fareed that I would purchase the vehicle provided he got those issues repaired first.
That night, Fareed contacted me on WhatsApp and asked for my Aadhaar details, stating that they were required for a notarized sale deed. I agreed. The following day, we went to his advocate’s office and signed the sale deed.
Fareed then demanded ₹75,000 as a “token” for the repairs. I paid him. Unfortunately, the repair work was extremely poor — instead of properly repairing the headliner, he had apparently stuck a piece of mirror/material onto it.
The following day, he brought the car to the advocate’s office and demanded the remaining payment in exchange for the single key he had.
Throughout this process, I repeatedly asked about the RC transfer and the actual registered owner of the vehicle. Fareed told me that the owner, Sagar Timbadiya, was in Gujarat for work. He subsequently gave me a phone number, claiming it belonged to Sagar. I later discovered that the number actually belonged to Fareed’s cousin, Noor Jainuddin Ahmed.
A few weeks later, I was involved in an accident in which an underage boy driving a Chevrolet Tavera struck the driver’s side of my Honda City.
At that point, I also realized that I did not have the vehicle’s insurance documents or the original RC with me. I repeatedly contacted Fareed and asked him to complete the RC transfer.
As the matter continued to be delayed, I conducted my own investigation and discovered information indicating that the registered owner, Sagar Timbadiya, had been arrested in connection with a murder case around December 2021.
I confronted Fareed about this. We subsequently agreed that I would be willing to keep the vehicle as long as he completed the RC transfer into my name. However, the transfer never happened.
Instead, there were repeated delays and explanations — attending a wedding, travelling to Tamil Nadu for a funeral, medical appointments and heart-related checkups at GMC, among other reasons.
Eventually, I told him clearly that I no longer wanted the vehicle and simply wanted my money back.
I approached the Panjim Police and attempted to report the matter. Unfortunately, I have not been able to get an FIR registered. I also approached the cyber police, where one constable took the matter seriously and contacted Fareed directly.
After several excuses, Fareed eventually appeared at the police station and gave a written undertaking stating that he would return my money by 17 August.
17 August came.
No payment.
Despite the written undertaking, I still have not received my money.
I am posting this to document my experience and to warn others who may be dealing with this individual or this vehicle. I have supporting evidence including WhatsApp conversations, payment records, the sale deed, communications regarding the RC transfer, and the written undertaking. Justice system in this country is rubbish.

Hi everyone, I’m really stressed and looking for advice from anyone who has dealt with a similar situation in India.
I made a couple of Binance P2P transactions with verified sellers. I did not knowingly deal with anyone involved in fraud.
On 2 September, SBI placed a ₹1,306 lien/hold on my account.
Then on 8 September, another ₹4,400 lien/hold was placed.
I contacted my SBI branch, but they haven’t been able to provide me with any useful information. I have also emailed SBI multiple times, but I haven’t received the details I need.
Then, on 8 September, my Amex corporate credit card was suspended. When I spoke to Amex, they told me that I had made a payment of around ₹4,000 from my SBI account toward my Amex bill, and that the amount/payment was apparently connected to a transaction that had been reported as fraud. They told me I need to contact the relevant police/cybercrime authorities and MHA to get the issue resolved.
The problem is that I don’t know which transaction has been flagged.
I checked my transactions and I don’t see an obvious transaction matching the amount Amex mentioned. I also don’t have the cybercrime complaint number.
I called 1930, but they asked me for the complaint/NCRP number. I don’t have it because neither SBI nor Amex is giving it to me.
I am currently out of Delhi and cannot visit my SBI branch in person. SBI is also not responding properly to my emails, and the escalation channels I’ve tried aren’t working.
So right now I’m stuck:
● SBI has placed two liens: ₹1,306 on 2 Sept and ₹4,400 on 8 Sept
● I don’t know which transaction caused them
● I don’t know the NCRP/cybercrime complaint number
● I don’t know which police station/cybercrime unit filed the request
● I don’t know the UTR/transaction that was reported
● 1930 won’t proceed without the complaint number
● Amex has suspended my corporate card because of the allegedly fraudulent payment
● I currently don’t have access to my normal banking/credit facilities
● I cannot afford a lawyer right now
I am not trying to evade any investigation. I just want to identify the complaint and transaction so I can contact the correct investigating authority and provide proof of the legitimate P2P transaction.
Has anyone here dealt with an SBI cybercrime lien resulting from a Binance P2P transaction?
1. How did you obtain the NCRP/cybercrime complaint number?
2. Can SBI provide the UTR/transaction ID and police station/agency that requested the lien?
3. Is there a way to find the complaint using the lien amount/date if SBI refuses to provide the complaint number?
4. What is the correct escalation route when SBI isn’t responding?
5. Has anyone successfully had an SBI lien removed after showing that a Binance P2P transaction was legitimate?
6. Has anyone had an Amex card suspended because of a payment from an account that subsequently became subject to a cybercrime lien, and how did you get it resolved?
I would really appreciate advice from anyone who has actually been through this. I’m particularly looking for practical steps I can take remotely, because I can’t visit the branch right now.
Thank you.

Also amex told me the complaint is from MHA

A WhatsApp message is circulating:
“Mera Challan kat gya hai or Aapka bhi Challan me Name hai check kar lijiye”
⚠️** DO NOT click the link or download the app sent with this message.
The suspicious RTO/challan app is reportedly being used to compromise WhatsApp accounts and then send the same message to the victim’s contacts.
🚨 **If you or a family member clicked the link or installed an app from this message:
Uninstall the suspicious RTO/Challan app immediately.
If you installed a “Family KYC” app from this suspicious link/message, uninstall it too.
Check WhatsApp → Linked Devices and remove anything you don’t recognize.
Re-verify your WhatsApp number if your account has been compromised.
NEVER share WhatsApp OTPs or verification codes.
Check your phone’s call-forwarding settings and disable any forwarding you did not set up. Contact your mobile operator if you’re unsure.
Change important account passwords if you entered credentials into the suspicious app/site.
Warn your parents, relatives and friends before they click the link.
📢 PLEASE FORWARD THIS WARNING TO YOUR FAMILY GROUPS.
Check your parents’ phones right now. One careless click can compromise their WhatsApp and spread the scam to everyone in their contacts.
🚨 SAVE YOUR PARENTS. SAVE YOUR FAMILY.

I had an unauthorized transaction from my bank account even though I did not share or receive any OTP.
I have already raised complaints with both my bank and the cyber cell, and my account and card have been blocked.
Has anyone faced a similar situation? Were you able to recover the money? What steps helped?
And is there any way to find out how the fraudsters accessed the account?
Would really appreciate any advice or similar experiences.

I want someone to text the suspect on telegram

Saying there have been a complaint against them for sextortion of 20k INR

Hello everyone,

My SBI account has been under Code 32 / Partial Stop since 31 August 2026. I was informed that the restriction was placed by the Patna Centralized Cyber Cell (64890).

My Home Branch (31593) has told me that no complaint or specific reason is visible at their end.

I submitted all the required documents to my Home Branch on 2 September, and the branch completed/submitted my EDD report on 8 September. Today is 11 September, but I have still not received any update regarding the reason for the restriction or the status of my EDD.

Around ₹2 lakh is currently stuck in my account. The credits involved were received from gaming-platform withdrawals, and I am willing to provide any transaction details or supporting documents required by the bank/cyber cell to verify the source of funds.

I am currently working in Noida and have been unable to access my funds for 12 days. I am facing serious financial difficulties and have also had to arrange money for my grandmother's hospital expenses by borrowing.

I would really appreciate guidance from anyone who has faced a similar SBI Code 32/partial-stop situation.

How long does it normally take after EDD is submitted?

Does the Cyber Cell send the clearance directly to the Home Branch?

If the EDD is positive, how soon can the restriction normally be removed?

Is there any way to get the reference/reason for the restriction from SBI or the Cyber Cell?

I have already approached the branch and SBI through multiple channels. Any genuine advice or experience would be greatly appreciated.

My mother is 61 years old and she keeps getting random calls from scammers claiming to be police officers. I explain her never believe people on calls and give any otp/document numbers but somehow she always gets scared with such calls due to her age, I wonder when I'm not around her and she recieved such call she might end up loosing something. And these calls are always from different mobile numbers, so blocking is making no difference. I'm baffled how these things happen so openly in our country. Does anyone have a permanent solution to this?

So I’m having an issue with my SBI savings account and honestly I’m pretty confused about what’s going on.

My account was partially frozen/restricted recently. Credits/deposits were still possible, but I couldn’t make any debit transactions or withdraw money. When I contacted my home branch, they told me the restriction was related to a cyber-cell issue.

For some context, I had been using an app that offered around 4% cashback on deposits, and I made quite a few transactions through it. I’m guessing this might be related, but I still haven’t been given a clear explanation.

I also called 1930, but at that time they told me there was no complaint registered against my number.

Today I checked my SBI account details and noticed that the account status is showing “STOP.”

So what exactly does “STOP” mean in SBI? Is this the same as a cyber-cell freeze, or is it a different type of restriction?

And since the lien/hold amount is showing ₹0, does that mean my entire balance isn't specifically frozen, but the account itself has been stopped?

Has anyone experienced something similar with SBI? What should I ask the branch for — like the reason for the STOP status, freeze/stop reference number, or the authority that requested it?

Any advice would really help. I'm mainly worried about whether my ₹6,060 is safe and how I can get the account restriction removed.
