How To Delete MobiKwik Account Permanently

Mobikwik was launched in 2009, offering a mobile-based payment system to its users and one of the first movers in the industry, which is currently the backbone of Indian urban user’s preferred way of spending. However, with the introduction of new platforms being launched in the market in the last few years, Mobikwik had taken a back seat in user’s mind, and the thought is going to be even more prominent with the news of the recent data breach scandal that took Mobikwik’s 3.5 million users data on sale on the darknet. This has resulted in various users trying to identify the easy and fastest ways on how to delete Mobikwik account permanently. 

The user data that has gone to sale under this breach includes the user’s KYC details, Aadhar Card Number, address, phone numbers, and other important details, making this the largest KYC data breach ever in history.

The news about this data breach was first made in February by security researcher Rajshekhar Rajaharia who shared the news on Twitter. He mentioned that over 11 crore Indian cardholder’s data has been leaked in the breach, from the company’s server. While in February, Mobikwik denied all these claims and called the allegations baseless, on Monday a link to this data sale on the dark web has been spotted by various users, reaffirming the claims and putting millions of user’s data on sale.
