The Rise of Cyber Crime in Delhi

With the explosion of digital payments and AI technology, cyber crime has become the most common offense in Delhi NCR. From sophisticated UPI phishing to AI voice cloning, fraudsters are using advanced tactics to drain bank accounts. If you are a victim, you cannot just rely on the local police station; you need a specialized Cyber Crime Lawyer in Dwarka Court to navigate the Information Technology Act and trace the digital footprint.

Often, victims of online fraud also face secondary issues, such as defamation or harassment. In such cases, sending a legal notice to the platform or bank is the first step before filing a formal cyber complaint.

Trending Cyber Scams

UPI Fraud
AI Deepfake
Crypto Scam
Identity Theft

UPI & Digital Payment Fraud

Scammers send fake QR codes, malicious links, or pose as buyers on OLX/Facebook Marketplace. Once you enter your UPI PIN, money is instantly debited. Recovery requires immediate bank notification and police intervention to freeze the beneficiary account.

AI Deepfake Extortion

Fraudsters use AI to morph your face into explicit videos or clone your voice to extort money from your family. We file complaints under Section 66E (Privacy Violation) and Section 67 (Obscene Material) of the IT Act to get the content removed and trace the IP address.

Crypto & Fake Trading Apps

Fraudsters lure victims into fake trading apps showing fake profits. When you try to withdraw, they demand "tax fees." We trace the crypto wallet addresses and file cases with the Economic Offenses Wing (EOW).

Social Media Identity Theft

Someone creates a fake Instagram/Facebook profile using your name and photos to scam others. We send a legal notice to Meta and file a cyber complaint to get the account suspended and trace the creator.
