SMS, Call and OTP Bombing in India: What to Do

Hundreds of OTPs and calls at once? What is really happening, what to check before you silence the phone, how to report it, and how to fix the endpoint.

Free to share, no credit needed. The card carries 1930 and the source address, so it still helps someone after it has been forwarded and nobody remembers where it came from.

Do this now

The first four steps, in order

  1. 1

    Do not silence the phone yet

    The flood is often cover for a transaction alert.

  2. 2

    Check bank, UPI and email, in that order

    Look for what the noise is hiding.

  3. 3

    Tap nothing in any of them

    Not one link, not even from a company you use.

  4. 4

    Call 1930 if anything moved

    Do not change your number in the first panic.

1930 is the national cyber crime helpline, 24/7. Reporting fast is the single biggest factor in getting money back. Call now
