Yes, cryptocurrency fraud can be reported in India. If you have been cheated through a crypto investment scam, fake trading platform, fraudulent wallet, phishing link, or unauthorized crypto transaction, you should report it as soon as possible.
You can:
Report financial cyber fraud through the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal or by calling 1930 for urgent assistance with financial cyber fraud.
File a complaint with your local police/cybercrime police station.
Inform the cryptocurrency exchange or wallet provider involved and provide transaction details.
Keep evidence such as wallet addresses, transaction IDs/hashes, screenshots, phone numbers, emails, chat messages, website links, and payment records.
Reporting quickly is important because investigators may be able to trace transaction flows and coordinate with relevant financial or cryptocurrency platforms. However, recovering cryptocurrency is not guaranteed, especially when funds have been moved through multiple wallets or overseas services.
