Faced a shocking incident today
Someone gained access to my Tata Neu account and placed a order worth 6500rs and used my 365 tata neu coins, payment method was COD and pincode was 110074
Phone which has my Tata Neu account mobile number was switched off from last 2 days, I never shared my account details with anyone in the past, how could some one even gain access to Tata Neu account without providing details and it allows login via OTP only
Order got delivered in 5 hours, I have all the details of the person who placed the order, raised complaint in tata neu via chat and execute told they will raise it with investigation team will look into this.
I got to know about the order only 3-4 hours post order delivery, my tata neu account number was switched off from last 2 days
update - saw few OTP requests from VM-iONEMG after I turned on the phone, sim fraud ?
- Sort By
why number was switched off? sim swap fraud?
If your linked email is gmail than leaked gmail password on darkweb is used to login to Apps where gmail address is your username. You may be using same password for gmail and other apps or saving passwords in chrome browser

I haven't linked gmail account to 1mg/tataneu app, but had manually provided it, also taatneu/1mg doesn't ask for password to login right, it is based on OTP
For the gmail account - I have enabled 2-Step verification, updated password and recovery email

Do you have access to email registered in the hacked 1mg account? Does it show any indications of unauthorised access or OTP received in trash or deleted items?
Try raising a return request for the delivered order.
Not sure how it is possible.

also 1mg / tata neu doesn't allow gmail login, there is no such option then how could have some gained access using gmail

Is their any 1mg login OTP recieved in your registered mobile number? Is your simcard active in that number? Getting calls and other SMS or not?
Check Google account security tab, for list of logged in devices and new login sessions as in below snapshot.
If you have the contact number of the delivery address, simply call the receiver and question him.

It seems two people's accounts got messed up.
This is not a case of hacking/fraud as the person who ordered via cod and sometimes neucoins got auto selected.
It seems to be a tataneu issue.

Old incident - i had faced a similar issue with Flipkart, same account but access was given to two people me and my friend, since he was my friend he informed me that something is not right. So i called fk cc and told them, they were unaware or unable to see anything, issue got resolved by it's own.

Some sharing software could have been installed by clicking on an unknown link or pop up scripts from porn sites. Mobile Given for repair to a local technician?
Some apps can share all your mobile data including gmail messages, call details and sms even when mobile is switched off.
Check your device thoroughly for unknown app installed in settings. More serious issues can happen later. If anything appears suspicious, you should do a factory reset of the handset.
If order is appearing in your 1mg history, try to place return request.

seems like fraud only
I called that person for whom the order was made, he is old aged person (age around 67 as per the medical report attached in the order). he is telling some 1mg agent had placed online medicine order for them and apart from that he doesn't have any idea
1mg team closed the case saying there is no possibility of this as app is secured via OTP and no cancellation or refund

Write a strong email to 1Mg customer care ([email protected] ; [email protected]), mentioning the conversation with the recipient and order was placed by 1mg agent who used your account and its neu coins, which amounts to fraud.
Name: Ms Siji George
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 08047485608
Name: Mr. Anubhav Mehrotra
Email: [email protected]
Phone: 08047485609
Telephonically call nodal officer and threaten them to lodge an FIR with cybercrime against 1MG, if you don't get any resolution within few days. Post the complaint with details on their Twitter handle to let others also know.
Although it is possible that 1mg agent may have used your dormant inactive account for a COD order for another person by telephone, without any intention of fraud and neu coins got adjusted automatically. It also justifies that your email & mobile is not hacked but your 1mg account used by their own executive.
Try asking telephone number of 1mg agent from the reciever from his call history

My tataneu account is not a dormant one, I am using regularly the last order was made on 9th Nov for which I had received the cashback of 360rs which was used in this order but my concern is not the amount it is more on the personal data, health records and also my tata neu hdfc infinity credit card which is linked in this account which can get misused if my account/phone is compromised also the future cashback which I get from credit card.
Also it doesn't seems like a telephonic record, there were 2 health records attached in the order, how can they attach this if the order was a telephonic one else some real tata 1mg employee who has backend access had helped them to place the order
Bhai ye kisi internal bande ka kaam hoga.
Same happened with me in 2022 with bewakoof account. I had refund money in bewakoof wallet and someone gained access without sending otp. Later turned out that it was some employee of bewakoof / internal person who gave information about account with money to some hacker and hacker hacked using some backdoor. Because same thing was happening with many users having money in their wallet
Lol, the same scamer send me promotional msg in WhatsApp mentioning 1mg partner offer
