Cybercrime in India has surged by 38%, leaving thousands vulnerable to scams like Digital Arrest, UPI fraud, and fake investment schemes. These crimes cause severe financial and emotional damage to individuals and businesses. If you have fallen victim to cyber fraud, you don’t have to face it alone. Immediate action can make a difference, and specialized legal support is crucial in recovering your losses.
Why Acting Quickly Matters in Cyber Fraud Cases
In cyber fraud, the first 24 to 48 hours are critical. Scammers move fast to transfer stolen funds through multiple accounts or convert them into untraceable assets. Delaying legal intervention reduces the chances of recovery significantly.
Our Dedicated Cyber Crime Helpdesk understands this urgency. We prioritize freezing fraudulent bank accounts and filing complaints promptly to stop further loss. Acting within this narrow window increases the likelihood of tracing and recovering siphoned funds.

The term “Golden Hour” refers to the critical time frame immediately after fraud detection. Acting within this period can:
Prevent scammers from withdrawing or transferring money
