FAQs

Cyber Crime Lawyer in Chennai: common questions

How do I report online fraud in Chennai?

My bank account was frozen by a cyber cell. What can I do?

A lawyer can find out which police station ordered the freeze and apply for de-freezing or limited operation, before the magistrate or the High Court if needed.

Can I get fake profiles or defamatory posts removed?

Yes. Platforms must act on grievances under the IT Rules. If they do not, courts can order takedowns.
