Cybercrime Legal Advice by Adv. Siby Varghese – How to Unfreeze a Bank Account Frozen by Cyber Police

When your bank account is suddenly frozen due to cybercrime investigations, it can be a stressful and confusing experience. Adv. Siby Varghese, a leading cybercrime advocate and co-founder of Shield Law Firm, offers expert guidance on how to deal with such situations legally and effectively.

In this detailed guide, we will explain why accounts are frozen, what steps you should take, and how Shield Law Firm can assist you in unfreezing your cyber bank account.

Why Is Your Bank Account Frozen by Law Enforcement?

Cybercrime-related account freezes are usually ordered by a law enforcement agency such as the cybercrime cell, police department, or financial investigation unit. These freezes are often linked to:

  • Suspicion of online fraud, phishing, or scams
  • Transactions from unknown or fraudulent sources
  • Involvement in identity theft or money laundering
  • FIR (First Information Report) under financial fraud
  • Violations of banking regulations
  • Use of your account by a third party without your consent

What Does a Frozen Account Mean?

If your account is frozen:

  • You cannot withdraw or transfer money
  • Deposits might still go in, but you won’t be able to access them
  • The freeze is often sudden and without prior notice

As Adv. Siby Varghese, an experienced cybercrime lawyer, explains—this is a precautionary legal step to prevent the loss or movement of suspicious funds.

Steps to Unfreeze a Bank Account Frozen Due to Cybercrime

If your bank account is frozen, here’s how you can legally unfreeze it with the support of a cybercrime advocate:

1. Identify the Reason for the Freeze

  • Contact your bank to find out which authority ordered the freeze
  • Request a copy of the freeze order or letter
  • Banks cannot lift the freeze without instructions from the investigating agency

2. Contact the Cybercrime Cell or Investigating Officer

  • Find out the details of the FIR or complaint
  • If you’re not involved in the fraud, explain your position
  • This step often requires legal support for effective communication

3. Submit a Written Explanation

With the help of Adv. Siby Varghese and Shield Law Firm, draft a clear explanation including:

  • Transaction records
  • KYC documents
  • Source of funds
  • Any email or message trail regarding the transaction

4. File a Cybercrime Complaint (If You’re a Victim)

If your account was used without your knowledge, file a police complaint. This helps establish your innocence and initiates your defense.

5. Request for Unfreezing the Account

A cybercrime lawyer can formally request the law enforcement agency to lift the freeze, along with supporting documents and affidavits. In some cases, a no-objection affidavit from the complainant can speed up the process.

6. Move to Court (If Required)

If the authorities delay action, Adv. Siby Varghese may file a writ petition in the High Court under Article 226 of the Constitution. The court can direct the agency to unfreeze your account if you are not guilty.
