💸 What Is a UPI Chargeback Scam?

In a UPI chargeback scam:

• The scammer sends you money through UPI (PhonePe, Google Pay, etc.)

• Then claims it was sent by mistake, or that you’ve scammed them

• They file a fraud complaint or cyber FIR

• Police issue a debit freeze notice to your bank under suspicion of cyber fraud

📌 Result: Your account is frozen. You can’t access your money. No formal case may exist, but you’re stuck.

🧠 Why This Scam Is Dangerous

• No prior warning – You often don’t know about the complaint until your bank freezes your funds.

• Even small amounts matter – ₹10 to ₹1,000 can trigger action if it's reported as fraud.

• You may not be the fraudster – But your account becomes part of the investigation.

• UPI systems are vulnerable – Anyone with your UPI ID can transfer money and complain.
