Moment 04 · New payee

The moment every scam and every mule needs.

What a new payee checks. Against what came before.

  • Not read here

    The face

    Not asked.

  • Checked

    The number and SIM

    The payee is added from the bound SIM, outside any cool-off after a change.

  • Checked

    The phone

    The bound phone, with no screen-sharing or remote-control app running.

  • Bound here

    The payee

    Scored before it is saved: how old the account is.

  • Checked

    The session

    An active call or a shared screen while the payee is added.

The decision. Cool off, in the example.

A new device, SIM or payee

  • Why

    First-time payee, account 2 days old and linked to 14 other accounts, added while the customer was on a call.

  • The customer sees

    “You can send up to ₹10,000 now. You get the full limit in 12 hours.”

  • A good customer

    A known payee is untouched. A new one may come with a short note, or a lower limit for a few hours.
