No but I have Recieved a reply from CTO of simpl puneet singh " We are working with authorities and have provided them all the fake IVR numbers. We are canceling the transactions and will not bill the customers for any fraud transactions."
Reduced Simpl limit from 25k to 2k
The number that I received call from is verified on WhatsApp as Simpl. Also I received Diwali offers from it few months back. So how is this fraud working?

The fraudsters have actually not made any IVR call from a mobile number. They have spoofed customer care numbers of reputed and matching companies or random mobile numbers to confuse and generated calls from computer.
I received IVR call from 7977912345 which turns out to be official customer care of Reliance Digital. Some one reported another IVR Caller ID as 9686645189 which is the customer care of Simple Energy Electric Vehicles selling company.

Deleted all accounts with Simpl. I don't want any hassales of chasing customer care
getting so may messages today that this simpl otp is for payment on zomato. what should i do?
there is no option on simpl without registration. i didnt even register on simpl.
Muje nai pata ye kab aur kaha kiya but aj tak simple pay ke itne call aa gaye hai inki ma ki ankh
Got at least 10 calls from this number - 98494 87079 saying that I requested a number change on my simpl account and it was an automated call, and they were trying to impersonate that they are from simpl. The call said that "you requested a number change, if you want the number to change please disconnect the call, if you did not do the request please share the 4 digit otp, when I chose the latter, I pressed 1, I got the 4 digit otp" and from history we have always learnt not to share the otp. so I disconnected the call, it was very smart of them. but they kept pestering me every 2 mins with the same thing
will close my account today with SIMPL
This is why I don't use new apps and upi even with all the lucrative cashbacks back them.
I would rather use my debit card, netbanking and good ol' cash on delivery.
