How RBI Plans To Protect Your Money From Scams!

Key points

* The RBI has released a discussion paper -- not a binding regulation -- seeking public feedback on measures to curb rising digital payment frauds.
* A key proposal is a one-hour 'cooling-off period' for digital transactions above Rs 10,000, especially for transfers to new or unverified beneficiaries.
* The RBI aims to counter scams such as impersonation calls and 'digital arrest' frauds where users are manipulated into transferring money instantly.
* Additional safeguards include whitelisting trusted beneficiaries, override options for urgent payments and stricter protections for senior citizens.
* The paper also proposes tighter monitoring of mule accounts and signals a broader shift from prioritising payment speed to enhancing user safety.
