Scammers may pose as representatives from reputable and trustworthy organisations, like a bank, to trick you into providing your personal or account information.
To protect yourself from scams:
- Make sure you never provide remote access to your electronic devices, no matter how legitimate the caller may seem.
- Never disclose private banking details like your PIN, passwords or one-time verification codes to anyone, not even someone calling from ME.
- Don’t click any third party links received in emails or SMS, even if they claim to be in reference to your banking.
- If something seems suspicious, make contact by phone through a verified website to find out more.
