# My Blacklists

> Maintain a personal Cashfree blacklist of suspect beneficiaries so any future transfers to those accounts are automatically blocked by Payout Protect.

You can create a blacklist of beneficiaries who might be regarded as unacceptable or untrustworthy. Once a beneficiary is added to the blacklist, we block the transfer that is initiated to prevent the beneficiary from receiving any money.

## Create a blacklist

**My Blacklists** allows you to block a beneficiary by adding any of the information: mobile number, email ID, UPI VPA, and bank account. Once you login to the **Payouts** dashboard using your credentials, navigate to **Payout Protect** > **My Blacklists**.
