By MARINEL SIGUE
Emerging in 2022, TEMU quickly won over many online shoppers with an extensive selection of items at enticingly low prices. However, you may want to delete your account.
TEMU is allegedly spying on its users from the in-app browser and may be recording sensitive data. The site is also accused of selling knock-off versions of products.
Thankfully, deleting your account is easy. Log onto the Temu website, go to Orders & Account, and Select "Account security" from the options.
Scroll down until you find "Delete your TEMU account" and click on it. Check the option "I want to permanently delete my Temu account and all its data" and click Continue.
Select the reason for deleting your account and press Continue. In the next window, hit Delete, verify your identity, and click on Confirm in the "Successfully requested" pop-up.
To delete your account using the mobile app, go to the You tab at the bottom, select Settings, and then open "Account security." Afterward, follow the previous directions.
