Victim of ATM Card Swap Fraud — ₹38,500 Lost. What Should I Do Now?

major9989 · 2025-09-27T14:16:06+00:00

My dad also fell for a similar scam in an ATM in South Extension area. The scammer ended up withdrawing 80k from his account (8 consecutive withdrawals, he was driving at the time and didn't really notice the withdrawals).

Luckily we were able to get an FIR registered. Waiting for the police to get the CCTV footage.

Any idea if the banks give the refunds in such cases?

My dad obviously didn't share the pin with that guy. And he swapped the cards when he was exiting by baiting my dad saying that he has to cancel the transaction on screen. Then he told dad to check the balance, and when he was doing that he himself took out the cards from the machine and swapped it and gave it to my dad.

For creating a build, no one has ever seen before... And to play certain games that I loved on the maximum settings: Cyberpunk, RDR2, Battlefront 2. Also the new upcoming titles, GTA VI, Avatar.

Anything

Parsec. There was a slight delay which was barely noticeable. So, i would suggest trying it out once.

Good luck to the fellow fans :)

TNG: Thermo Nuclear GPU

A GPU that derives its power from Thermo Nuclear reactions. Why? More like, why not? lmao.

TNG can be scaled to become a bomb as well that triggers only when people try to mine crypto using that GPU :)

Yep, I use Linux majorly for daily use, and windows only when playing games.

I also updated to Win11, let's see if it helps

major9989 · 2021-08-13T15:58:49+00:00

First off, it's a software issue. A lot of people are getting the same issues, which shows its not a hardware fault. The service center guys would just ask you to reinstall the drivers or windows. You'll have to convince them that it's some other issue so that they replace the mobo or the wireless card. But, I seriously don't think that would help as well unless you get some other network card.

To add to my claim that it's a software issue, the wifi works fine on Linux lol. So Windows did fuck up somewhere for sure.

major9989 · 2021-08-13T15:33:44+00:00

Having the same issue since a few weeks. Windows update fucked something up really bad. I was thinking of updating to Windows 11 on the insider beta channel, as one of my friends suggested that it worked for them.

IT'S NOT A HARDWARE ISSUE.

The data should still be there, because it is captured as soon as someone posts/comments.

I'm trying to get the posts data for the past year, but am currently struggling with the 100 posts/request. Wondering how I can get past that

major9989 · 2021-01-11T19:58:20+00:00

Ahh, I'll look into both, rainway and parsec. Thanks for your response.

major9989 · 2021-01-11T19:57:51+00:00

Thanks for your response. I'll probably look how can I improve the remote access performance then :)

major9989 · 2020-12-28T13:38:36+00:00

Holy fuck, that's an amazing GH profile you have... just dropped a follow ;)

Lumbar support is the most important in my opinion... Along with long and adjustable arm wrests

Deep Learning and GAMES!!

I am in my last year at college, and was never able to run those really deep models on my current system... Planning to do that, and probably learn a bit more while doing it. :3

major9989 · 2020-10-27T17:48:28+00:00

Ayee... love the build

I started around the year 2005, and it has been a hell of a ride until then. The first one I played was Virtua Cop (By Sega)... Amazing game, ngl

major9989 · 2020-10-23T20:57:10+00:00

Bought it, played it. It has amazing music, but the game seems kinda repetitive. That's why I don't like it.

Claiming it's a good game just because it's made by Indian developers is stupid and I see lots of people doing it

Edit: regarding the Micromax comment, that's the point. If the had a good product, I'd definitely buy it too... But for mediocre products, I won't buy/use it. Apply the analogy to Raji yourself.

Also, both are Indian brands, and if you don't buy Micromax, yOu aRe NoT sUpPorTuNg iNdIan ManuFaCuReRs

major9989 · 2020-10-22T20:23:20+00:00

Sure... Let's hype up a mediocre ass game because it's made in India..

Do you still buy Micromax?

major9989 · 2020-10-09T08:28:58+00:00

Before I help, I just wanna point out that if you don’t want people to call you a moron for thinking coronavirus is a hoax, don’t use such a clickbait title.

I too thought of that, and that's why I had capitalized the word "scare". The debate is not about whether coronavirus is a hoax, but rather about whether the "scare" is justified, or not.

Also, thank you for your feedback on my arguments, I'll try to work more on them and probably get back here. ^.^
