Hi Cyber Crime Complaint Team,
Yesterday afternoon (19th Jan 2023 US time) There were Fraudulent IMPS transfers or transactions from my Citibank Account in India to Union Bank and IDFC bank accounts in India. I am currently in the US and recently moved to the US from Bangalore, India in October end of 2022. I am attaching ALL the details related to these transactions including the Hack or Attack on my Laptop asking me to call Microsoft Support from ‘Windows Defender Security Center’.
Hackers posed as Microsoft Support Team and Citibank US and Citibank India to make me believe that my Personal Laptop and Home Network is hacked and my bank details are comprised and there was an Illegal transaction of 5200 USD on my Citibank India account from Mexico related to ‘Child Pornography’ and I will lose the money in 2 hours and I will need to move the money to a ‘Secure Wallet’ otherwise they THREATENED me that I would get into legal trouble and may also end up as a money laundering case because of the above mentioned Illegal transaction. They TRAPPED me into making these transactions on the PAXFUL app (Bitcoin Trading App) and moved my money via Bitcoins into another wallet from my wallet. I have blocked my Citibank card and raised a DISPUTE with Citibank India for the 3 transactions of 50k 32k and 45k INR and requested them to return my money ASAP.!
Please register a FIR and file a case of Cyber Crime involving Ransomware/ Malware and Bitcoin related Fraudulent Money transfers and Bitcoin transactions on PAXFUL app.
I have also reported this issue to Chat Support of PAXFUL and mentioned these transactions as done by a ripper and requested to block or dispute the transaction.!
Please NOTE: I AM NEW TO BITCOIN TRADE AND DIDN’T KNOW HOW IT WORKS SO IT WAS EASY FOR THESE IMPOSTERS TO FOOL ME, KINDLY HELP ME.!
Thanks,
Satish
