I never received otp. Just only msg confirming the payment. There could be several ways our info can be leaked, not sure how this happened. Bank checked and told me that the online vendor was pre approved one by visa and hence no otp required for them, similar to amazon. What ever be the mode of payment, if theres a black sheep within bank sharing our details, we cant do any thing.

Online transaction during wee hours I have disputed and filed case as well, it will be recovered in 8-48 days as per bank promise. All the hassle and stress we undergo is a huge challenge. Better to avoid getting into such situation.

Debit card

Exactly thats my point, once when we find the right balance why not we drive little closer during day time as-well. Even while driving close or with more distance if theres any refusal ahead I tend to stop or to get out of the way(after many conscious attempts and practice) and never overtake the car in front (my first ever lesson from @Wrangeld on my first ever newbie drive). Hope if we follow these and driving little closer during day time should not be a concern.

Dear All, Yesterday I encountered with a fraudulent transaction clean sweeping my bank balance. I never share pin, otp even with my wife. Where ever I tap in the shop I make sure I do it on my own. Still this incident happened with out even receiving OTP. Bankers say that Visa and Master cards have pre approved vendors for whom OTP is not required. Scammers take advantage if this. Banks don’t take responsibility for this to enhance the security. The only option to protect is to set a maximum transaction limit. Such crapy solution from banks running on high end tech solution. At least not to get scammed again I decided to set a limit and also advised by my friend, will maintain another account just only for shopping and topping up that account only when needed. Thought of sharing this with you all so that you can be aware and protect your hard earned money and have peace of mind rather than calling banks and visiting police station to recovery the money.

Dear All, We all are advised to drive leaving safe distance (5-10 car space) from the car in the front. We all follow that no doubt its for all our safety. But while night drive the safety distance is reduced and we follow the car in the front very closely. During night with reduced visibility if can drive close (2-3 cars space), why not during day time? Of course day time drive pace might be more, still the alertness and response time will be better in day than night. Had any body else thought like me!!!! Just want to understand better!

Thanks @Lorenzo Candelpergher, @Chaitanya D, @Shaz Shah and all the seniors in the drive for such a wonderful evening drive. Except for few cresting and minor refusals all were self recovered. Kudos to the entire convoy. Have to mention the importance of Dr. as the presence of @Chaitanya D and @M.Seidamwas reassuring safety of @PaoloMaraziti and was glad to see the effort taken by team in dropping out @PaoloMarazitiby taking long route to ensure his safety. Hats of to @Carnity team. Way to go!!! Thanks @Lorenzo Candelpergher for extending the drive as a token of acknowledgement of the entire team who were waiting patiently and concerned about the safety of the fellow men and crew. Looking forward for another wonderful drive. Have a nice week ahead.

Thank God you recovered and also know the reasons for your situation. It all happens and nothing to worry, take care and hope to see rocking when you are back on sands.

@Warren Flay and @Nathan Evans this is Fewbie plus drive, you will not be allowed, kindly plan for another drive immediately.

Kindly consider me in as waitlist in case if I miss to RSVP (have back to back meetings today).

@Lorenzo Candelpergher I hope drive is for 7 June (Tomorrow). If so RSVP not yet open!!! Also drive detail says 7June - Friday. Can you please clarify if its a mid week drive or week end drive.

Thank you Angela @Foxtrot Oscar for the yet another wonderful evening drive from you. Free flow of fun, energy and still focused on the drive and keeping the communication going, lots to learn from you!!! You are truly an🧚🏿‍♀️ Thanks to @Islam Soliman, @Alexander Alcala and @Arman for the tireless wonderful support, really an asset to the convoy and Carnity. Even though we started little late we were not struck at all and able to catchup with good pace. Every one drove really well. Very few minor refusals all self recovered and with subsequent attempts. It was pop out issue(2 out of 3) on my count) we had to deal with and was fixed by team rather quickly. Little technical, lovely side slopes, perfect crisscrossing, excellent ridge riding and churned-up sand in the behind, it was mix of all, except for steep climbing. Good learning for all. After safely exiting few of us on time (due to time constraint), @Foxtrot Oscartook a bunch of guys back into dark for an extended drive. I believe you guys rocked and had fun. What a commitment and love of the sport displayed by all 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Thanks to entire convoy. Looking forward to meeting you all in sand soon. Have a nice week ahead!!!!

Just followed your path and instructions, nothing else!!!

@Werno, @Sinol this is a Fewbie plus drive you will not be able to join this drive, kindly plan accordingly...

Even as a copilot with @Anish S, @Veedooshee’s support on drive is amazing, true sportswomanship!!!

Great decision, love it. Hope to see some chasing action between convoys on either side of the dunes!!! Only 5 more drives!!! See you soon.

@Alain Canivet-Abikhalilthis is a fewbie plus drive!!!

Waiting for tomorrow, see you all on a wonderful drive !!!!

Thanks Dr. @Chaitanya Dfor the beautiful flawless cool drive and @naved and @Nivin for the support. Started on time, starting with tight technical dune, then followed by long dunes it was a great drive, fortunately weather was also pleasant and there were hardly few refusals self recovered. It was pleasure following your track and in-fact you have raised the newbie drive by a notch and entire convoy responded and drove well. Love your night drives. Have nice week end drives and see you soon!!!
