I need some advice regarding a scam I recently faced
I found a Telegram user offering mobile recharge and Amazon Pay balance at discounted rates. Initially I tested with small transactions which were successfully completed and this built my trust.
Later he offered Amazon Pay balance worth 60000 for 16000. I transferred 16000 via UPI on 30 April. After that he started delaying and giving very limited replies. On May 4 he blocked me on Telegram.
I do not have full chat screenshots but I have UPI transaction proof and his Telegram profile details.
I have already reported this on the cybercrime portal.
My questions: 1 Is there any chance of getting my money back
2 Should I also file an FIR at local police station
3 Is there anything else I can do to improve recovery chances
Any help would be appreciated.
His Telegram Id is: @pa4pal
