My friend recently sold hotwheels to a guy from some WhatsApp group, total the guy paid my friend ₹660 after 2 days, my friend got to know that there's some debit freeze placed in this account, after visiting the bank he got to know that due to some cyber complaint his bank account has been freezed and the transaction that was mention in the complaint was the same transaction of ₹660, the complainant details mentioned that it's in some layer 4.

My friend called the guy and he also said that his account is also freezed because of the same complaint number.

My friend shared details about the transaction and how money came but bank says they cannot do anything and he needs to connect with cyber police.

Luckily one of our friends dad is in police he managed to get us the IO's number but we are not getting any response and we have been asked to visit the police station where the complaint is registered. Now the issue is that we are from Rajasthan and the complaint is in Odisha and a single round trip to Odisha would cost approx 30k.

My friend is just a student in his last year and can't afford going there again and again and the main issue is that he is getting very anxious that this complaint could ruin his career and he might not get a job as it will get flagged in background check.

So i am here requesting community to help us out and let us if anyone else faced something similar and how you got out.

Also, just advice from my side to not take money from a stranger directly to your account.

Please please help us out and get my friend out of anxiety.

Please message of someone can help.
