[CC fraud] SCB credit card charged in VND. Beaware of E-Batua

already thr is a discussion going on over here on the same matter, do have a look https://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/...

How can we limit international transaction limit on the card? I have never seen such feature on either my ICICI card or Citibank card.

Sad to hear such stories, very difficult to trust new websites lately. Hope you get your money reverted.

@BaMbU You will have to wait till it appears in your unbilled transactions. You got the notification for payment authorization.

Unfortunate and dangerous…

True that best protection would be to not use card at all on unknown sites, and not save on ANY site. However, practically, we (me included) do keep saving cards most of the time, especially on sites where we do regular shopping!

Reason-Mainly for convenience, but also supported by faith that companies involved in the financial txn / payment process must have been taking adequate precautions…So personally, I think its ultimately about maintaining a safe balance between safety vs convenience and requirement to do txns => On high trust sites like Amazon, Flipkart, may be we can save details w/o much concern, but on new or least trust sites, we can and should avoid saving this info…

Despite this, we are all exposing our selves to risks (incl frauds, hacking of sites, password thefts) by very activity and its nature… if one is hyper sensitive, one may carry less risk…we differ in risk aversion or risk appetite… So let’s just all basic precautions-and a little more, and couple it with following ‘best practices for doing financial txns on internet or even offline’, and we should be fine 99.9% of the time…..?

thank you your post is useful will not use ebatua like website

bro it is not necessary that e-batua might be the culprit ,
it may be possible that e-batua had a weak security and the hackers obtained the cc details through their site .

Wat about otp ?

https://www.desidime.com/forums/dost-and-dimes/... – Already i discussed this here. Credit cards are stolen from some gateway and they are using it for fraudulent purchases. I request you to contact the bank once again and report it . you cannot go by what they say as your main priority is to report it and one cannot wait for 48 hours since merchant will claim the amount. Same thing happened in my case and i reported it immediately. It will take anytime between 45-60 days to resolve the issue. Moreover report this to facebook here https://www.facebook.com/help/contact/649167531... @BaMbU

E-Batua App: Refer & Earn-Free Rs.20 Bank Cash Per Referral – Never ever trust these kind of deals for the sake of giving them your aadhar number or your card details.

I do suspect E-batua since you just clear your cache in the app and try to login. It will not allow you to login Just to collect the details, they played us smart….. All report this app in playstore.

Don’t fall for these apps for 10-20rs.. Always ensure you are using a payment gateway for transactions.. Better safe than sorry..

Just email them and clearly tell them you have not made this transaction and hence you are not going to pay for it. wait for them to reply. they will send you an upgraded card.

In scb online banking, i sent an email asking to block international transactions. They said it cannot be done and asking for the international tramsaction to raise dispute.

Money refunded by facebook . thanks @deals44u. But ~140 rs not refunded. Any idea, how can we get back them?

@BaMbU @deals44u Recently I have also been a victim of this facebook ad transaction. I visited the facebook link shared by you but there is no option of “I don’t recognize this transaction or I was overcharged” option in that menu. Please revisit the link and help guys.
