ParityCube, a Mumbai company, has launched OpenTrust, a free shared list for Indian merchants to flag and check phone numbers tied to fraud.
A Mumbai company called ParityCube has launched OpenTrust, a free shared registry where Indian merchants can flag and check mobile numbers linked to fraud. ParityCube builds and maintains it. The announcement came out on October 22, 2026.
The idea is a common list. A shop that has been burned by a bad number can flag it. Another shop can check a number before it deals with that customer. The announcement does not describe how the tool works day to day.
ParityCube was founded in 2011 by Mehul Jobanputra and Jimish Jobanputra. It focuses on affiliate marketing, cashback, shopping communities and customer acquisition. Its brands include DesiDime, Zingoy, Cuelinks and LetsEarn. It reports 50 lakh+ (5 million+) registered users, 500+ brand partners and 70+ employees.
The text is a press release supplied by VMPL and carried by ANI as an advertorial. ANI says it is not responsible for the content. The company's figures are its own claims. Merchants who sell in India may want to wait for those details before relying on the list.
OpenTrust is a free fraud-number list for Indian merchants, but how it checks reports and protects data is not yet public.
