Fraud Awareness Week

As part of "International Fraud Awareness Week", we would like to remind you to be vigilant while dealing with unfamiliar or unknown sources. Fraudsters often take advantage of busy moments, attempting to manipulate you into actions that could result in significant financial loss.

Here are some common scams to watch out for, and how you can protect yourself:

Bank representatives offering credit cards or products

Always verify the representative’s credentials through official bank channels before sharing any information.

Suspicious links for delivery or updates on personal details

If you receive a link to update your personal information or credit card details for receiving payment or delivery, do not click the link or share sensitive information.

Calls claiming to be from the Police Department

If someone claims to be from the police and sends OTPs from different government websites to gain your trust, do not panic. These requests are a tactic to gain trust and get access to your information.

Fake documents or unverified payment requests

If you receive fake documents with new account details or to send money to an updated IBAN number always verify directly with the original source before taking any action.

Requests to share OTPs to cancel orders or rides

Never share OTPs or click on unsolicited links. Scammers may use these to gain unauthorized access.

Practicing digital hygiene

As a matter of digital safety, never share sensitive information, credentials, or OTPs with anyone over phone calls or messages. Avoid clicking on links from unknown or suspicious sources.

Don’t Be a Victim of Financial Fraud.
