If you need my transaction info I'll pm you for further legal action.
Brother, I appreciate the gesture — but let me be brutally honest for your own good.
Don’t be like me.
I chased this for over a year. I filed GDPR complaints. I emailed payment processors. I knocked on doors that don’t exist. I got stonewalled by faceless vendors and insulted by signature shills. What did it get me?
🟥 No refund
🟥 No data
🟥 And a mountain of stress
So if your loss is ₹500? Take the hit, learn from it, and *never* trust these mirror sites and third-party UPI links again. It’s not worth losing your sanity for a scam wrapped in a fancy UI.
Oh yeah, sorry for that. I might be misinformed, I am not an Indian, so I am not quite familiar with the digital payment system of India. Correct me if I am wrong, but UPI is the system, PSP is the bank who use UPI, and TPAP is the phone app of the bank [PSP]?
This is from the very site you gave:
I mean, the site you gave and refer to as "NCPI's official guideline", the very page you linked, even have the form to submit complaint?
Do enlighten me.

Sure, since you asked nicely:
Yes, you can file a UPI complaint — but if you disclose it involves a **gambling site** or **foreign crypto casino**, your bank is more likely to **freeze your account** than help you. That’s because facilitating gambling through UPI violates Indian law and flags your transaction for AML review.
Also, let’s not act like that NPCI form is a magic wand. The merchant (in this case, Stake) has to respond. And guess what? Stake ghosted my emails, ignored the dispute, and made sure the shady vendor they used had no contact info. How do you "resolve" a UPI transaction when there’s no phone number, no GST, and no business address for the recipient?
So only possibility is to contact the one who received money from you via bank and this platform does that when we use all the required documents.
If only that worked.
Finding the UPI receiver is like chasing shadows — there’s no real contact info, no legal entity, just a shell used to pipe your money out of India. You try filing a complaint with your bank saying, “Hey, I sent money to a gambling site through a fake business account listed on a mirror domain.” You won’t get a refund. You’ll get a compliance officer locking your account under suspicion of laundering.
The truth is simple:
✅ Stake *chose* those shady UPI vendors
✅ Stake *displayed* them as official payment methods
✅ Stake *profited* from every transaction
✅ Stake *disappeared* when something went wrong
And now their defenders want you to chase ghosts, bots, and bank forms that go nowhere.
Please think twice before sending another rupee to these thieves.
