The incident remains unverified however report from the cyber security firm Cyble suggests hackers are demanding ransom from Paytm Mall and selling its data on hacker forums.

Although it is unclear how much data was stolen from the company or what was included in the stolen data, according to cybersecurity firm Cyble the hackers behind the attack go by the online handle of “John Wick” and “Kelvin Sec.”
