Be Cautious of Impersonating Bank Employees
Fraudsters may impersonate bank staff and use phone calls or voice messages to promote bank products or services, or they may instruct you to follow instructions for making transfers or remittances. Their intention is to deceive you into providing your personal information or debit card details.

Fraudster Tactics
Fraudsters may send fraudulent email or SMS by impersonating telecommunications companies, large chain retailers, reward platforms, or government agencies. The content usually contains URL that resembling the official domain names of legitimate organizations or platforms. They falsely claim that you can redeem gifts at discounted price, that bonus points are about to expire, or that outstanding fees need to settle, all with the aim of prompting you to click on the embedded URL in the messages, leading to counterfeit websites that further steal your personal information or debit card details.
Anti-Fraud Strategies :
• Carefully verify hyperlinks: You should verify whether the URL embedded in the email or SMS match with the official domain names of the legitimate organizations or platforms.
• Verify the authenticity of the content: Proactively contact the relevant organizations or platforms through official channels to confirm the legitimacy of the email or SMS.
• Avoid clicking on suspicious links: Do not click on any links or open any attachments in suspicious email or SMS, and refrain from inputting personal or debit card information.
