We should avoid paytm wallet

Even i lost 1400 two months back and got the same reply after many complaints. I even tracked that guy but can’t do anything. My phone number and password was same on the account which he hacked

I also lost so many money

wrong section

NEVER do that!

If you have done this mistake with any other accounts, I encourage you to change the passwords ASAP.

Sry to hear dat…. It made me to think…. I always hate mobikwik bcz of its sms verification in every transactn…. But i now feel dat it is necessry 4 security

Its not just the hackers you need to worry about but paytm itself too. They have an unbelievably incompetent staff on their cc team and it’s a nightmare to get things fixed in case there is an issue. Dont keep/shop for more than what you are willing to loose on paytm. I’ve reduced my wallet balance from about 5k+ on average to under 500 now. That too is mostly cashbacks. Will clean up that too once there is some recharge offer on wallet money.

same with mine…my wallet was used to recharge a mobile phone for 1000 bucks…and they are not doing anything!

Bank is safer thn paytm,, just 1k in mobi, n 500 bucks in paytm

i also lost 500.bakwas bevarse paytm wallet. mobikwik is some what better because maild id cannot be changed.here both mail id/mobile both can change in paytm. this is doing by paytm guys itself

this all becoz guys reach fishing links for in the greed of some coupan.when u put ur number and password and press login it goes to hacker.so plz dont put ur password n login any fhishing page

The first thing that you need to make sure is that always use special characters when you keep a password. It always helps. And the 2nd thing is that you should not share your username or email with any strangers as well openely anywhere. If sometime you need to share it for wallet transfer then keep another account for back-up which can be used for these things. Few days before someone tried to hack my SBI account but then I logged in and increased the no of special characters.

safe tbi rhega.. ek main wallet me money rakho or khin pr share mt karo.. ek dam chupaa kar… jitni jarrt ho dusri wallets me daalo use kro.. main wallet ki email or mob no. share mt kro kahin par..

any proof to support your point..?

Btw, I strongly believe that having secure password and maintaining the privacy of the same is users responsibility.

Agreed ..but when seding money from paytm… paytm should add authentication like SMS code right ??
like every bank do..

why its not doing this ?

+1
I second that.

Paytm is busy with offering deals with only Cashbacks. Where as hackers are busy with hacking Paytm profiles. Cash Back is the only reason always keep me away from buying from their site. They want us to be use it everywhere, but with out any proper security. It’s just like keeping wallet hanging with a chain. Anyone with id and password can just squeeze our money. I still don’t know the reason why Paytm Withdrew the option to revert money to our Bank accounts.

A very genuine question. You are absolutely correct they should add some security cos currently they don’t have any security.
I think they already working on that and it should be implemented asap.

well i did this earlier, learnt the lesson of life

Never reveal your OTP to any one.
Keep your password as strong as possible.
Stay away from phishing sites.

Paytm is far better than many sites.
Many are using Multiple Accounts on paytm… Some even mentioned 100’s!!

What if they active OTP!?? Very bad right!
so keep tracking your wallet. Have patience and Beware is the only answer.

Yes. Bro..

this is very much required. paytm is like bank. it must have authentication when transferring money… !

even if they add security to transfer money then also if someone hacks anyone account then he can use all the money . It is good to have strong password

How many un-verified accounts u have 100 +

I agree OTP is must for fund transfer.Even 2 step authentication like google is best in case of any issue.
For few hacker one should not suffer.

I support full security.

I think, for now we should educate dimers to chnage their PAYTM password(Make it difficult to guess. Seems paytm is not having brute force detection mechanism ), and keep forcing paytm([email protected]) to add OTP for money transfer. Desidime site should flash this message in its Bulletin.

Absolutely, I was one of the very first victims and has been trying to educate people about the same even made a blog but people didn’t listen. Anyway, now I only use PAytm for recharge and for paying on other sites only where Mobikwik is absent. Mobikwik resolves your problem if your present them with proper detail.

download paytm wallet there opton enable pin while transaction wallet money

some tried to reset my password at Paytm site Glad that they sent email about this.
