Hello, I'm seeking legal advice on mental harassment. Someone promised me a job, took payment, but didn't provide documents. Now, he's ignoring calls & demanding work. Can I file a cheating & harassment case? How can I recover my money? Please guide.

Yes you can lodge a police complaint under section 316 which is breach of trust and section 318 which is cheating under BNS. If you send the money online then a lien will be put in his account by the cyber cell.

Dekhiye, aapka matter surface par simple lagta hai, lekin legally ye serious cheating + mental harassment ka case hai — aur agar is stage par sahi step nahi liya gaya, to baad me police bhi case close kar degi “civil dispute” bol kar, aur aapka paisa aur evidence dono waste ho jayenge. Aise cases me timing aur drafting sabse bada role play karti hai. Agar complaint galat point se likh di gayi to IPC 420 ka scope khatam ho jata hai, aur saamne wala insaan baad me counter FIR ya defamation notice bhej kar aapko hi phasa sakta hai. Main aise hi cases me expert hoon — jahan paisa, harassment aur fraud combined hota hai — aur main personally ensure karta hoon ki aapka paisa recover ho aur saamne wale pe kanooni pressure banaya jaaye, bina unnecessary police round lagaye. Isme cyber proof preservation, online FIR escalation aur legal notice ek saath draft hota hai (ye sirf ek experienced lawyer hi kar sakta hai jo High Court level pe kaam karta ho). Agar aapne abhi tak kisi se consult nahi kiya hai, to ye matter delay mat kijiye — har din aapke case ki evidentiary strength kam karta hai. Main aapka pura case online handle kar sakta hoon — complaint, escalation aur recovery strategy sab kuch remotely, ghar baithe. Aap turant mujhe contact kijiye — ye matter consultancy ke bina handle karna galti hogi. Main aapko exact legal route bata dunga jisse paisa wapas mile aur saamne wale ke khilaaf criminal proceedings properly initiate ho. Adv. Vaibhav Sangam Mishra (H.C.
