As reported in a tweet by Vidit Sahni, a resident of New Delhi, Flipkart is selling plenty of PC games beingness listed for "offline utilize only". Upon further checking out the items, the description clearly states that it is a cracked game, and you can install information technology by disabling your antivirus and proceeding with the installation.

He further highlighted a game, FIFA xviii, which was listed for simply Rs. 799 on Flipkart, with the clarification being "Notation: There IS A CRACK ONLY NO DIGITAL Lawmaking".

"Earlier installation, the game first off your net and antivirus. 1. All CD file copy in your pc 2. Setup File Click iii. Install the game 4. Install finish and open the game and enjoy your game," the description reads out in cleaved English language.

It is quite astonishing that Flipkart is openly selling pirated croaky games for purchase on their portal. What'southward worse is the fact how Flipkart initially dealt with the state of affairs. Following his findings, Vidit went on to raise a complaint, posing the following question:

"Why is Flipkart selling pirated products? The production description itself shows that the game is installed using a fissure. Isn't it a serious oversight? And this is not the only game."

However, Flipkart responded to the query by disapproving the question itself. "Reason for not-blessing the question: Irrelevant question," stated Flipkart.

Despite giving the above response, Flipkart has since then removed these listings from its website. Nonetheless, the bodily beliefs from Flipkart hasn't been skilful, and it is quite astounding that such an deed was allowed in the outset identify.
