Get a good lawyer , File compliant against bank for illegal holding of account in consumer forum , either they will give more details or they have to open you account

File a complaint to Police station against bank too .

I already got holding lifted in my account in 1.5 Yrs with penalty to bank rs 19000. they do not held any right to hold your amount.

Banks and Police can do whatever they want and there's no point going against them and I've tried but there was no result.

I got scammed last year by this user https://localbitcoins.com/accounts/profile/TanishaRoy/ when I was selling BTC on LBC.
Now I know that he is a fraud and was selling dogs on quickr and asking those dog buyers to deposit funds into my bank account.
This Indian guy named Ravindra Kumar Tanisha (more details about the scam can be found here http://www.livelifeandexpress.com/2016/09/online-scam-behind-adoption-beware.html).

Icici bank
Acc Name..Ravindra kumar
account no-097501512081
IFSC code-ICIC0000975

I also found that this bank account was also involved in fraud:

Axis Bank
Account name: Kamal Singh
Account number: 916010024209918
IFSC Code: UTIB0002531

In simpler words:

One guy puts up ad on www.quickr.com selling dogs (which he doesn't have) and asking this buyers to deposit money into many user's accounts whom he found on www.localbitcoins.com and got BTC from them. These dog buyers never got their dog and later on they filed police complaints against the BTC sellers as they deposited money in their accounts.

If anyone has ever sent money to either of these two accounts or have been a victim of such a fraud then please let me know.
I would like to find this guy and put him behind the bars.

How long a bank can keep an account frozen like this? This unending investigations appears to be a way to eat public money to make up for their losses. Why did u let it go and did not pursue further?

It's still blocked. I asked my bank to refund that money but they said they will do it after investigation and looks like their investigation never ended.

I've got conned by same method 2 years ago and my bank account was blocked. As Far as I know they provided IP addresses that time along with his email id and a mobile number which was switched off. I didn't filed a complaint as amount was only 18k rupees.

How did u get your bank account unblocked after this?

LBC don't give anything out about their users. That's their privacy issue

It's a classic middleman scam. I've seen enough, I've tackled enough.
Things you can do now is,ask localbitcoins to provide his Email ID,Mobile number and IP addresses. He might have logged in without vpn/proxy and there are chances you can get his real location (city etc). Once you get that file a police complaint against him and provide all information with ip addresses.

It's because of these people, Bitcoin get a bad name in the Indian society, we cannot track him using just a mobile number, the crook can change it or sell it. It's hard to trust people on localbitcoins, lots of scammers just waiting for innocent people.

thats why buyer or seller should always use exchange to buy or sell bitcoin.even local bitcoin has its reputation then also there are plenty of scammers around.and if you are trading for bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency then it is recommended to meet personally then do the trading.
