Mobikwik UPI scam through WhatsApp/Google meet

I foolishly became a victim of this MobiKwik wallet scam. Please read the text to save yourself and forward it to your loved ones.

If you see your favorite influencers posting about "90% off Amazon deals," DO NOT CLICK IT. A massive, highly sophisticated scam is draining bank accounts right now. Here is exactly how it works so you can protect yourself and your family:

👉 The Hook: Scamsters buy ads or compromise influencer accounts to promote "secret 90% Amazon discounts."

👉 The Trap: They lure you into a WhatsApp group and instruct you to load money into your MobiKwik wallet to buy the discounted items.

👉 The Heist: To "help" you process the order, they get you on a Google Meet video call. Once you share your screen, they tell you to turn on Do Not Disturb (DND) so you don't see incoming SMS alerts.

👉 The Drain: While watching your screen, they log into your MobiKwik wallet from their device, intercept your OTP via your screen-share, and completely drain your balance into their bank accounts. They will keep repeating this until you catch on and hang up.

Spread the word. Don't let your friends fall for "too good to be true" discounts.

⚠️ Never share your screen on Google Meet/Zoom with strangers, and never turn on DND during a financial transaction.
