They don't change the OTP so that you memorize it over time. There's a very low chance of getting a repeat bike captain and the bike captain remembering your OTP from a previous ride. So low chances of fraud. Not foolproof, but the downside is limited.

Actually my first four digits But that steals the concept of password right? What if somebody with same starting digits takes my ride?

They have your numbers in their database. People with the same first 4 digits in the same location probably won't have the same OTP.
