UHello everyone,
I recently moved to Hyderabad for a job and unfortunately fell victim to an online scam. I was looking for an online service (escort service), and they asked me to pay **₹299 upfront**. After that, they kept demanding more money—**₹2000, then ₹9000**, and I ended up paying. When they asked for another **₹9000**, I realized it was a scam.
I have already **filed a cybercrime complaint at the Raidurgam police station** and will be going there again in the morning. I’m sharing this because I want to know:
1. **Has anyone else faced this?** What should I expect when dealing with the police?
2. **Will I get into any legal trouble?** I was just a victim of fraud, but I want to be sure.
3. **Is there any way to recover my money?** Has anyone successfully done this?I won’t be sharing personal details, but any legal insights would be really helpful. Also, if anyone knows someone in Hyderabad who can help with cybercrime cases, please let me know.
**If anyone wants to know more or discuss this further, feel free to text me.**
Thanks in advance!
_Edit: You are okay to judge me, it was my first time, and I was curious as hell to see what happens. I was ready to run after giving the small amount, but then one thing led to another._

ENot a lawyer
Based on what I have read online.
You can file the case and based on the complaint in some cases the police will freeze the account
I have also heard that sometimes they will send an amount and file case on you and the police will freeze your account too.
So it’s best to empty your account and keep the bare minimum amount in the bank account.

P11k, who did you think you were going to meet at this rate? Consider it a loss and move on. You can find reliable paid services on Tinder and Bumble.

UThat’s okay, but any idea about the police complaint? I did file an online cyber and the office at the police station asked me to go tomorrow morning ( not sure if that’s how it works ) .
-
PYes, that’s how it works. Just visit them. If you feel they are handling it incorrectly like judging you or trying to get more money out of you, just say thank you and walk away. You are a victim of your desires and a scam. Don’t take more bullshit.

U🫡okay, actually might sound weird but it’s good I suffered. Played stupid games and won stupid prizes.
The online complaint is done and will go tomorrow and see what happens (don’t want to lose the job, or let family know then I went to jail for these petty reasons)

UI already did the cyber report and yup I’ll block them, it’s just should I need to go to the police station he just said that after the online come tomorrow, not like “You have to come!!!” type of u understood what I wanted to say lol.
So what to do, getting mixed opinion

ULike I was asking him what to do or not he was like first report online and then gotta see or come tomorrow morning , basically not forcing or commanding me that u have to come. And yup I did learn it losing the money and what deep shit I would’ve gone, tbh the second it happened I dialed 100 dial and went to police station, like I didn’t give it a seconds to get into fear or what other things happen to you as a person. I was like okay got scammed gotta go to the police straight up.
