If you believe you have been a victim of cybercrime, it’s important to act quickly and take appropriate steps to report it. Here are the steps you can take to make a complaint in case of cybercrime:

Collect evidence: Gather any evidence you have that can support your complaint, including screenshots, emails, and other relevant information. This will help the authorities to investigate the crime more effectively.

Report the incident: Contact the relevant authorities, such as your local police station or cybercrime cell, to report the incident. You can also file a complaint online through the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal (www.cybercrime.gov.in) or the Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (www.cybercrime.gov.in/ic4/) portal.

Provide details: Provide as much information as possible about the incident, including the type of cybercrime, the date and time of the incident, and any other relevant details. You will also need to provide your personal details, such as your name, contact information, and address.

Follow up: Keep track of your complaint and follow up with the authorities to get updates on the progress of the investigation. You can also seek legal advice from a lawyer to understand your rights and options.

Remember, the sooner you report the incident, the higher the chances of catching the perpetrator and minimizing the damage caused by the cybercrime.
