Paid Advance to website developer now absconding
07-Apr-2023 (In Consumer Court Law)
Hi, I've paid a Rs.10,000 advance to a web developer whom i found online. I met him offline at the nearest ccd, signed the contract, explained him all the process etc and transferred him the money. the time stated to develop the website was 2 months, but after the 3 month ended, i told him that it's way late now and he should either complete or return the money as per contract. He said he would return but soon turned off his phone and email. I have everything on email, transfer receipt from bank but don't know how to recover. The amount is too less to go to police, but I am a student. Help!
Yes ,the procedure and running around can get on your nerves but, then you shouldn't have let the website developer abscond. !!
Firstly , one cannot turn off their email so contact the cyber crime branch and lodge complaint of cheating and the rest of the way will on its own pave out.
I cannot advice you to initiate a legal proceeding in any way if you don't know the details of the person you wish to recover money from .
For any other assistance and guidance please feel free to write back .
