Fake police threatened arrest and demanded payment
Digital Arrest
This is always fraud. Real police never conduct video arrests.
What you should know
This is always fraud
Indian police never conduct arrests over video calls. Customs never demands payment to release you. These calls are 100% impersonation.
File FIR too
Duress is your strongest defence
Transfers made under threat or fear are not free consent. This is a powerful basis for refund and criminal complaint.
File everywhere
Local police FIR + 1930 + NCRP + Chakshu portal, all at the same time. These cases are prioritised by I4C.
Parallel filings
Do NOT do these
- Pay any "recovery" fee or middleman
- Share OTP, PIN, or CVV with anyone
- Delete messages, calls, or screenshots
- Stay on the video call
