Fake Meesho messages and links
Fake Meesho texts about reseller fees, order rescheduling charges, paid like-tasks and prizes. See how the lines work and how to check.
Meesho is an Indian marketplace known for low-priced products and a reselling model that lets small sellers and homemakers share catalogues on WhatsApp. Because many people use it, scammers pretend to be Meesho in SMS, WhatsApp and email messages. This page lists the lies they usually tell and how to check before you act.
Lines used in fake Meesho messages
- Join as a Meesho reseller, pay a registration fee to unlock earnings
- Your cash on delivery order has a problem, send Rs 10 to reschedule
- Daily earning task: like products and get paid, message us now
- You won a Meesho mega prize, share your bank details to receive it
How to verify it yourself
Meesho's seller and shopper dashboards show orders, returns and payouts, so check there before you trust a story. Joining as a reseller through the official app does not involve a registration fee sent to a personal UPI ID. Download the app from the store yourself and type the website address by hand. Real payouts come to your bank account without you entering a PIN, and no genuine task pays you to like products.
Quick checklist
- Do not tap links or call numbers inside the message.
- Open the official app, or type the official website yourself, and look for the same notice.
- Never share an OTP, PIN, CVV or password with anyone, including "staff".
- If money moved, call 1930 and your bank at once.
