NIC Asia Bank Putalisadak QR Problem and Cyber Crime Report Case (Update)

Last updated on April 12th, 2024 at 09:26 am

Hello folks, Howdy ?

On 29th February midnight when i was sleeping i received 50000NRS transaction from unknown person to my NIC ASIA Bank Putalisadak Branch. I didn’t receive SMS for this transaction either.

Next morning i got a call from bank stating my account got frozen. I said it doesn’t belong to me process refund. If any of you guys have sent it report to me immediately.

Main problem is NIC ASIA bank neither refunded the amount, nor it accepted my requested to refund it to the original sender (i said i can write through email but visiting the bank is not possible immediately due to my work routine and time issues for such small problem).

I visited the bank after couple weeks and wrote letter to refund the amount while also asking the reason why my account is still frozen. 2 days later i got a reply letter from bank that stated my account was frozen because of Cyber Beuro ordered to do so. I immediately visited Cyber Beuro Bhotahity same day where i was asked to leave my number and name. The investing officer said he would call me.

Have you guys faced issue ever ? As you can see i have QR codes available on my websites for easy access to payments plus to receive any donations tips (some generous guys who love my work and want to buy me a coffee eh). QR codes are available everywhere even outside of shop, outside of passport center, government office, many websites and all. What are the chances of this being misused and what are the legal options to deal with such case (If any problem arises in future).

As far as i know some the amount i got was transferred from some hacked account. Somebody hacked or misused someone’s banking, it got sent to some other account and finally it was transferred to my account. I have no clue to who the sender is. I cant find any email, call or message on this regard.

I also wanted to write regarding NIC ASIA Bank’s behavior in this case. At first, they dint tell me cyber crime has requested for account block. They gave official letter after about a month. When i wrote letter the amount was transferred to my account mistakenly and return it to the sender, my letter didn’t get any stamp on it nor they registered the letter officially even after multiple requests.

UPDATE April 12th 2024 : Went to Cyber Bureau today myself. Investigating officer handing the case was on leave. I was asked to call and revisit again Sunday. Will update after visiting again 🙂
