Hi everyone, I really need your suggestions. Being an educated person, I trusted someone and invested nearly ₹40 lakh with him after he promised a 5% monthly return. I came to know about him through a friend, so I believed he was genuine. Now I’ve realized that he has allegedly cheated many people. He has stopped repaying and is openly telling me to “go legally” if I want my money back. I have transaction records and a few cheques from him as evidence. However, many people are discouraging me, saying that a cheque bounce case is useless, that I won’t recover anything, and that I’ll only end up spending money on lawyer and court fees. I’m mentally and emotionally exhausted. I’ve also learned that he has allegedly cheated nearly 50 people, involving crores of rupees. If anyone has genuine legal knowledge or has gone through a similar situation, please share your suggestions or guidance. It would really help me during this difficult time. Thank you.

All 50 people should come together. Hire 1 lawyer and file case together.
if you have transaction history and his confession asking you to go legal ... File a charge of 420 under IPC and matter will be taken immediately.
Same thing happened to me also and it's worth is 30L and only thing I did was forget and moved on so that my mental piece, health and both professional and family life was saved. If you try also you need to pay a lot more in terms of energy of anykind it's like compounding. Now I completely forgot and learned a big lesson. And the same works for you given your scenario.( Around 50 people involved) Even if you try to chase you get some money like for every lakh 15k or 20k and any proportion as so many people involved he will handle all of them at ok one shot.
