Re: fraud

Your query is not very clear. So far it appears to me, somebody remitted a sum of 6,00,000/- in your bank account upon your oral false or deceptive representations of some business or other activity without any writing and now you apprehend that said person may initiate some criminal prosecution against you.

This may constitute an offence of cheating punishable u/s.420 IPC having punishment upto 7 years and fine.

However, if you provide full details, I may be able to guide you better, as every false representation not necessarily amount to cheating.
