Donated money to a scam charity can I recover my money back


06-Jun-2023 (In Recovery Law)
Someone called me and asked for a donation to save a child undergoing treatment at AIIMS. I checked the govt site and the link looked valid. I donated 10,000 Rs/- (online transfer through bank- http://www.reliefindiatrust.org/). The next day they called me again and said they need another 36K and I got suspicious. When I did detailed research I saw lot of people complaining about them. My question is if I can claim that money (10K ) back from them. I definitely want to donate for a valid cause. I just feel me trust has been violated. I am an educated person and I hate being taken for a ride.

U need to file a police complaint. Take out all the print outs and all the inputs available on the web. Note down the mobile / contact number through which you have received the call from. Further course of action will be advised in person.
