	+	Recovery odds: 72-hour file → ~15%. Day-30 → ~5%. Beyond → ~1%. Speed matters.
	+
	+	===== The complaint ladder =====
	+
	+	- Within minutes — Call 1930 (National Cybercrime Helpline, 24×7).
	+	- Within 72 hours — File at [[https://cybercrime.gov.in\|cybercrime.gov.in]] → Financial Fraud → Online Gambling/Betting. Have ready: transaction ID, merchant UPI handle, screenshots, bank statement.
	+	- Within 7 days — Visit your bank with all docs; file NPCI UDIR chargeback (creates paper trail even if rejected).
	+	- Within 14 days — Written complaint to bank's nodal officer (every bank's site lists this).
	+	- At 30 days (if bank silent) — Banking Ombudsman at [[https://cms.rbi.org.in\|cms.rbi.org.in]] + RTI to your state cyber cell via [[https://righttoinformation.wiki/tools/ai-rti-draft-app.html\|AI RTI Drafter]].
	+	- Amount > ₹50K — Lawyer (free aid via [[https://nalsa.gov.in\|NALSA]] for low-income); join class actions if multiple victims of the same app.
	+
	+	===== Don't =====
	+
	+	* Treat cybercrime.gov.in as the only complaint — every step compounds.
	+	* Skip the bank visit — it triggers internal investigation.
	+	* Give up at chargeback rejection (normal for authorised UPI; other 5 steps still work).
	+	* "Deposit one more time to recover" — deepens loss + legal exposure.
	+
	+	===== Read the full guide =====
