        As the heading says, I just got scammed of โ‚น40,000 by a person impersonating a coaching institute teacher on 1st March around 8 PM time. I know I was a total fool and I made a huge mistake being so gullible. I realised about the fraud and lodged a complaint on 1930 within 3 hours of transaction, also complaining on NCPI Dispute Redressal Mechanism. I also have downloaded all telegram export data where it is clear through chats that I was defrauded by an account impersonating a coaching institute teacher. Can I ever expect to get my money back? Is it possible? What steps can I take for the same. Please help me as I am getting completely stressed out and feeling too guilty at the moment.

          Your best bet is

          Find an ethical hacker who can figure out the identity of this person

          Befriend him and make him return the money.

          I know this sounds ludacrious but it has worked with a friend who got scammed in the wine shop scam on new years many moons back

              Should I not expect anything through the complain lodged online on 1930 ?

                  My friend got most of her Money back so the cops said why are you still here and you should consider your self lucky.

                  She even gave the cops data on where the scammer was located upto his village address. Yet no action was taken

                  So take a guess.

                You can lodge a complaint in the cyber cell. If that doesn’t work out you can also approach the Court directly. It’d be much easier to get something meaningful out of it if you’re able to somehow ascertain the identity of the fraudster.
