Receiver needs to follow up with cyber police. There was a thread here, where a woman mistakenly sent money to someone and put a freeze on him. The victim is still struggling I guess.

Yes I am aware about it.
Kind read edited version, once again.
Basically without putting lein his account was marked total debit freeze. This usually happens from South Cyber departments and Gujarat and other states.
Insanely, freezing authority handed with poor implementation, they are not even approachable, without strong ground such action is taken, no right to be heard is provided to receiver before taking any such action.

Guilty unless proven. Literally have to fight with cyber police. Time consuming and draining. Not worth few hundreds earned that way.

I am not glorifying such things. It's not good at all.
But just imagined what if, thing goes like in this way.

Even I don't know. Lets see if someone can shed light.
If you receive a million dollars doesn't make it yours.
You are obliged to report such transactions, whether that's UPI (they have a report feature) or straight to your bank account which is very unlikely to happen as these cases mostly happen via UPI.
Try checking any payment you have received via UPI, you can mark such transactions as unknown and even get them reversed easily from within the respective apps.
In this case this is the correct course of action for financial cases like this. Froze all the concerned financial instruments involved in the scheme.
The whole point is to stop the money flowing to have a chance of recovering or seizing it.
The guilty until proven innocent might not be best concept to apply here.

Don't get it. Are you implying I too scammed them? Its my guess that they too maintain some block list.

I haven't said like this by any means. 😂
I just meant that the receiver has earned the money or recieved due to the mistake of sender where there's no fault on part of receiver
and one can receive money on good faith, one which he can't be made liable, one (common man) has no authority to check background of every sender through which one transact.
Yes agreed on this.
Where's such report feature, kindly attach the screenshot and explain lil more.
How to mark unknown and get the reversed through TPAP?
Shed some light on it.

Yeah. I totally understand that part, which is why I usually don't take their money. Even if I do it, I take it in kotak where I have 0 bal. I also don't do this bs on my primary number, this is my secondary one.

Next time I will send them to continue in @Vasuki s number. They will be trapped into an endless chat.
They have zero connection with those influencer's. They just pickup random high profile youtubers/instagramers and ask people to like them in exchange of money then after some time they will ask you to invest in paid programs like deposit 1k get 1.3k. This is how they build up your trust with them. After this whenever you invest a high amount or they feel like you won't investest a high amount they will say that you have to deposit more in order to take out your last withrawal and you will never get your withdrawal. Btw they add you to a group where thousands of other users are added. You can't see their contact info neither you can chat with them. Only those scammers put screenshots in that group of people earning thousands of rupees.
When i asked them why i can't chat and others who are putting the screenshot can then they said those are senior employees and if i want to become a senior employee then i will have to deposit 50k.

Here is their modus operandi.

In a statement to the police officials, the woman said: "When I clicked the link, I was added to a group on Instagram. Someone called me and directed me to like some YouTube channels and earn quick money. As I earned some money, I was given more tasks. This way, I earned around Rs 10,000.”
Later, the scammers informed the woman that if she invested, she would get back two times the amount in a short period.
“In a Telegram group into which I was included, there were many persons, including women, and some claimed they had received 'double money' for the investments they made," she said.
"Trusting them, I started investing in different bank accounts mentioned by the miscreants. My investments ranged between Rs 10,000 and Rs 30 lakh. Each time I invested, I was getting a message, confirming my investment and the interest rates against them. It all showed I was due to double the money,” she added.
Falling prey to this scam, the woman invested Rs 2.7 crore. After a few days, the woman got suspicious of seeing repeated messages from scammers claiming to have received double payment.
