Digital Arrest Scam in India

A practical guide to digital arrest scams in India, including fake police calls, fake case numbers, video-call intimidation, and money-transfer pressure.

Fast Bank/KYC Route

Pick the exact banking or KYC pressure first

Use the matching path before clicking any link, calling a number from the message, sharing OTP, installing an app, or paying a new fee.

KYC link or account block SMS

Message says update KYC now or the account will close

Do not use the message link. Open the real bank, wallet, SIM, PAN, or Aadhaar route yourself and compare what the message asks for.

Bank-wise KYC message

SBI, HDFC, ICICI, wallet, or PAN update text looks official

Check sender ID, domain spelling, OTP demand, APK prompt, and support number source before trusting any bank-branded message.

Login page or support call

Netbanking page, fake support desk, remote app, or screen share appears

Stop the call-led steps. Type the official address yourself, use saved app routes, and do not share OTP, card data, UPI PIN, screen access, or passwords.

Money or account harm happened

Debit, account takeover, document misuse, or mule-account risk is active

Contact the bank or wallet quickly, save the debit and message trail, then use 1930 and cybercrime.gov.in for the complaint record.

Evidence Pack

Save this before deleting the SMS, chat, or call log

  • Sender ID, phone number, WhatsApp profile, email address, link, final redirect URL, and message timestamp.
  • Screenshot of the KYC page, bank-looking login page, APK prompt, support number, payment QR, or document upload request.
  • Debit alert, UTR/reference, bank ticket, SIM or wallet ticket, 1930 ID, cybercrime.gov.in acknowledgement, and follow-up status.
  • What the scammer asked for: OTP, UPI PIN, card details, Aadhaar/PAN, remote access, screen share, verification fee, refund, or account unlock payment.
Official route first

ScamScan helps organize the case, not replace the authority

For money loss, account access, identity document misuse, SIM risk, or device compromise, use the bank, wallet, telecom provider, 1930, cybercrime.gov.in, police, cyber cell, or platform route first. Then use ScamScan pages to keep the evidence and next steps clean.

FAQ

Bank and KYC scam questions before you act

Should I open a KYC update link from SMS or WhatsApp?

No. Open the official bank, wallet, telecom, PAN, or Aadhaar route yourself. Do not log in, upload documents, install APKs, share OTP, or pay through the message link.

What if the message says my bank account or SIM will close today?

Treat the deadline as a pressure tactic until verified. Check inside the official app, saved website, branch, card-back number, telecom app, or official support channel that you open yourself.

What proof matters most after a fake bank SMS?

Save the full SMS, sender ID, link, landing page screenshot, phone number, payment demand, debit alert, UTR/reference, bank ticket, and complaint acknowledgement in one timeline.

Where should I go if money already moved?

Contact the bank or wallet provider quickly, use 1930 for active financial cyber fraud, file or update cybercrime.gov.in, and keep every acknowledgement number together.
