You are right. Except the big ones like Amazon, Google ... I really doubt other companies are investing in data security at this point. Hope this Dominos case becomes an example and everyone bolster their security otherwise as you said, its just a matter of time
hackers got a mind of their own but this has given us a head start at least. I've removed all of my CCs from Zomato and Swiggy and will try to stick with these pay later services
A burner debit card is even more important. A zero balance account with minimal amount of money
No I don't trust Paytm, get digibank or kotak 811 if you want virtual visa debit card
Late reply but anyway. There is no legally valid burner number service in India as per current laws & rules, you can still use burner numbers from international services but the number you get won't be in Indian mobile number format. As for services like Doosra, you will have to do full video kyc so not much point compared to getting another sim just for unessential/shopping/food ordering sites(why make your full kyc details available at one more place compared to mobile service providers which already have your details).
You can create as many virtual disposable debit cards as you want from netbanking of many major banks like sbi, hdfc, icici etc or you can simply use a relodable prepaid card like hdfc payzapp or icici pockets. However there isn't much point compared to just getting a zero balance acc with regular virtual debit card from kotak 811 or paytm(digibank now has 5k min avg balance requirement). Also it is advisable to directly use your card only on trusted sites(security wise). e.g. amazon/flipkart security can be considered as good & sometimes even better than many small Indian banks while those like big basket/grofers/dominos/zomato/swiggy etc I always doubt & hence never used my card directly on any of these sites.
