What legal actions can I take against the fraud?
I gave room rent to a person who was a mediator between me and the landlord, but he has not passed the amount to the owner and has gone to his hometown. He has been ignoring my calls and messages for the past three weeks. Once, I received a call from him, and he said he would send the money to the owner, but he hasn't done so yet. He is now ignoring my calls and texts. I have all the proofs of the payment. What can I do in this situation?
You can inform the landlord about the situation and show proof of your payment to avoid any liability. If the mediator still refuses to return or transfer the money, you can file a police complaint for fraud and misappropriation. Additionally, sending a legal notice through a lawyer may pressure him to settle the matter.
First of all, try to settle the matter through amicable means, and if not settled, then make a legal notice to the person, highlighting that if the money was not sent to the owner, you would take legal action against him.
Sir, if a person is not responding despite multiple attempts, then you may consider sending a legal notice with the help of an expert lawyer who will assist you to file a civil suit in court of law. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
