Why It Occurs (Most Common Causes):

Phishing and Fraud Prevention

Recognizing Phishing Attempts

What Is Phishing?
Fraudulent emails, texts, or websites that look like ReddyBook but are actually fake. Designed to steal your login credentials or personal information.

How to Identify Phishing:

Red Flag 1: Suspicious Email

Phishing Email Example:

From: support@reddybook-security.com (WRONG - official is support@reddybook1.ac) Subject: URGENT: Your account has been compromised. Click here to verify. Body: "Dear user, we detected unusual activity on your account. Please click the link below to verify your identity immediately. [Click here to verify your account] ReddyBook Security Team"

Why It's Fake:

  • Email domain is "reddybook-security.com" (not official reddybook1.ac)

  • Creates false urgency ("immediately")

  • Asks to click link (real emails provide options)

  • Vague greeting ("Dear user" not your name)

  • Requests verification of sensitive info

Red Flag 2: Suspicious Link

Phishing Link Example: 

Why It's Fake:

  • Domain includes "ac-verify" (not official)

  • Slightly different URL to confuse you

  • Points to unencrypted HTTP (should be HTTPS)

How to Check Link:

  • Hover over link (don't click)

  • See URL in preview (should match https://www.reddybook1.ac/)

  • If different domain: Don't click

Red Flag 3: Unusual SMS 

Why It's Fake:

  • Official ReddyBook uses proper domain

  • Real ReddyBook rarely asks identity verification via SMS

  • Links in SMS often fake

How to Protect Yourself

Rule 1: Don't Click Links in Emails/SMS

  • Instead: Go directly to https://www.reddybook1.ac/ in browser

  • If asked to verify: Login and check settings directly

  • Type URL yourself (don't use email links)

Rule 2: Verify Sender Email

  • Official ReddyBook emails from: support@reddybook1.ac (or similar official domain)

  • Check full email address (sometimes shows as "ReddyBook" but is actually phishing)

  • When in doubt: Contact support directly (don't reply to email)

Rule 3: Never Give Personal Info via Email/SMS

  • ReddyBook never asks password via email

  • ReddyBook never asks for personal ID numbers via SMS

  • Official support never requests these via unsecured channels

  • If asked: It's definitely fake

Rule 4: Check for HTTPS

  • Official website: https://www.reddybook1.ac/ (notice HTTPS)

  • HTTPS = encrypted, secure

  • HTTP (no S) = not encrypted, unsafe

  • Browser shows lock icon next to HTTPS sites

Rule 5: Use Official App

  • Download from official app store (Apple App Store, Google Play Store)

  • Don't click links to download app

  • Verify developer is "ReddyBook" or official entity

  • Check reviews (if it's obviously fake, reviews will warn)

Rule 6: Keep Software Updated

  • Security patches fix vulnerabilities

  • Outdated browsers can be compromised

  • Outdated phones lack security features

  • Update operating system, browser, apps regularly

What to Do If You Suspect Phishing

Immediate Steps:

  1. Don't Click Anything in Email/SMS

    • Close the message

    • Don't respond

    • Don't click links or download attachments

  2. Report to ReddyBook

    • Forward suspicious email to support@reddybook1.ac

    • Include full email (with headers if possible)

    • ReddyBook will investigate

  3. Report to Email Provider

    • Gmail: Click "Report phishing"

    • Outlook: Click "Report phishing"

    • Other: Look for "Report" or "Spam" button

    • Prevents others from being scammed

  4. Check Your Account

    • Login directly via https://www.reddybook1.ac/

    • Review account settings

    • Check recent activity

    • Verify no unauthorized changes

    • Change password if concerned

  5. Contact Support If Needed

    • If you clicked link: Contact support immediately

    • If you entered information: Change password immediately

    • Support can monitor for unauthorized access

    • Can reset account if compromised

Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) Setup

Why 2FA Is Important

2FA means even if someone gets your password, they cannot access your account without the second factor (OTP or biometric).

Security Improvement:

  • Password alone: 1 factor (stolen password = account access)

  • With 2FA: 2 factors (need both password AND OTP/biometric)

  • Millions of times more secure

Setting Up 2FA - Step by Step

Step 1: Go to Security Settings

  • Open ReddyBook app or website

  • Go to Account → Settings

  • Select "Security" or "Two-Factor Authentication"

Step 2: Choose Your 2FA Method

Option A: SMS-Based 2FA (Simple)

  1. Select "SMS-based 2FA"

  2. Confirm your phone number

  3. Click "Send OTP"

  4. You receive SMS with 6-digit code

  5. Enter code in ReddyBook

  6. Click "Verify and Enable"

Backup Codes - CRITICAL

What Are Backup Codes?
One-time use codes that let you regain account access if you lose your phone or 2FA device. 

Store Backup Codes:

  • Write on paper and keep in safe place

  • Store in secure password manager

  • Don't keep on phone (if lose phone, codes are lost too)

  • Don't email to yourself (unsecured transmission)

  • Tell trusted family member where they are (so they can help if emergency)

If You Lose Your Phone:

  • Go to login page

  • When asked for 2FA code

  • Click "Use backup code instead"

  • Enter one of your backup codes

  • Can access account

  • Set up new authenticator app on new phone

  • Mark used backup code as used (won't work again)

Critical: Don't lose your backup codes or you'll be locked out if phone is lost/broken.

FAQ About Support and Security

Q: How do I know if ReddyBook support contacted me legitimately?

  • Never asks for password via email/SMS

  • Addresses you by name or Reddy Book ID

  2. Use backup codes (if you saved them) during login

  3. Contact support with identity verification

  4. Access via web (may not require SMS code)

  5. Support can disable 2FA after identity verification

Q: How often should I change my password?

A: Recommendations:

  • Minimum: Every 6 months

  • Recommended: Every 3 months

  • After suspected breach: Immediately

  • If you shared it: Immediately

  • If it's weak: Immediately

Q: Can I have two passwords for added security?

A: No, ReddyBook uses one password. But:

  • Use 2FA for second factor of security

  • Use strong password for password factor

  • Two-factor authentication is more secure than two passwords

Q: Is my money safe if account is hacked?

A: Yes, your money is protected:

  • If unauthorized withdrawal: Can often be reversed

  • If unauthorized bets: Can often be cancelled/reversed

  • Contact support immediately if compromise suspected

  • Investigation will find unauthorized activity

  • ReddyBook has fraud protection insurance (varies by jurisdiction)

Q: What should I do if I see a suspicious bet placed?

A: Immediately:

  1. Don't place any more bets

  2. Change your password (use different device)

  3. Contact support via phone or live chat

  4. Provide: Time of bet, bet details, amount

  5. If bet is still pending: Support can cancel

  6. If settled: Support can investigate and potentially reverse

Q: How long do I keep my support chat history?

A: Varies by channel:

  • Live chat: Usually limited (save if important)

  • WhatsApp: Saved in your WhatsApp (unless you delete)

  • Email: Stays in your email indefinitely

  • In-app messages: Saved in account indefinitely

  • Phone calls: No recording (unless informed otherwise)

Recommendation: Screenshot or save important support conversations for your records.

Q: Can support employees see my password?

A: No, absolutely not. Here's why:

  • Password stored encrypted (one-way, can't be decrypted)

  • Even system administrators can't see passwords

  • Support staff can't access encrypted passwords

  • If they ask for password: They're not real support (scam)

  • Real support never needs your password

Q: What's the difference between ReddyBook support and Reddy Book ID support?

A: Reddy Book ID is your username (account identifier). ReddyBook support is the customer service team. You contact ReddyBook support using your Reddy Book ID for identification.

Q: Can I contact support through social media?

A: Not recommended:

  • Facebook/Twitter/Instagram not official support channels

  • May not get response

  • Your messages public (security risk)

  • Scammers may impersonate on social media

  • Always use official channels (chat, WhatsApp, email, phone)

  • Found official social media accounts are for announcements only
