Hey everyone
I want to warn you all about a massive scam being run by Mebigo Labs right now. They are the parent company behind Kuku FM and they just launched a new app called Wow TV. They are pushing a 3 day trial for 1 rupee using UPI Autopay.
Here is exactly how they steal your money. I authorized the 1 rupee UPI mandate late on May 7 for the 3 day trial. Less than 24 hours later the app suddenly changed to say 1 day trial and boom they executed the full 699 rupee mandate at exactly 12:23 AM on May 8. They literally changed the trial terms on their backend after I paid.
The most illegal part is the RBI violation. Under RBI rules banks and merchants are legally required to send an SMS warning at least 24 hours before any recurring deduction. Because Wow TV executed the charge exactly 24 hours after I signed up they completely bypassed the mandatory warning period. I woke up to missing money with zero notification.
I emailed their support with all my GPay logs proving the 24 hour timeline.…
