Bold Care Co-Founder Shares Bank Card Details, Invites Users To Make Purchases

In a surprising yet unexpected move, Bold Care co-founder Rahul Krishnan shared his debit card details, offering people to make any transaction they want within a limit of Rs 1,000. Yes, this is no joke. On Monday, Krishnan shared a tweet that included his card number, expiration date and security code—details typically kept private. Along with this offer, he laid out a simple set of terms and conditions for the “takeaways.”

“Wait what??!! Please bhai the rules set kar lete hain: ⁠ ⁠max transaction INR 1000, whenever you get an OTP SMS, you’ll reply to the main tweet, bas itna hi (Why don’t you need approvals?)”

As soon as the post went viral, people actually started using the card details to make purchases of up to Rs 1,000. Krishnan shared a dozen OTPs on his X handle throughout the evening. From Grofers to Swiggy, Amazon, Meesho and Zomato, the payments were made across various platforms.

Several tweets revealed that some users attempted to make larger transactions with the shared card details. However, Rahul Krishnan has not disclosed the reason behind this bold stunt. Social media users had mixed reactions to this Bold Care marketing campaign. Some also reacted to his Bold Care marketing campaign. One wrote, “This was the best marketing campaign ever but at the end, his number got blocked. Fact: Sharing OTP is a criminal offence according to RBI. But he has done more than 100 transactions.”

Earlier this morning, Krishnan shared a meme video on his account, urging people to stop sending OTPs anymore.

The Bold Care co-founder is known for his out-of-the-box ideas and posts on social media. Recently, he shared a tweet to show an awkward conversation between him and a condom manufacturer. He shared the screenshot of his conversation with the seller, who asked him about testing the condoms himself.

“A new condom manufacturer came to our office today and gave me a huge box of samples at 2:30pm, then texted me at 5pm to ask if I tried them???” he wrote. Internet users reacted to the post with some hilarious reactions.

One asked how the condom testing takes place, to which Krishnan said, “The condoms are tested rigorously at the manufacturing facility – there are multiple tests that they go through.”
