Does your bank ask you for data via email? Don’t be taken in by these messages!

Signs

Fake bank websites look almost identical to banks’ official websites. These websites often have a pop-up window for entering login details, but banks’ official websites do not use pop-up windows. These websites usually have:

  • a poor design: be careful of websites that are poorly designed or show spelling and grammar mistakes;
  • pop-up windows: these are often used to collect sensitive information. Do not click on them or enter personal information.
  • urgent messages: you will not find urgent messages on your bank’s actual website;

What should you do?

Use a browser that allows you to block pop-up windows.

If your bank really needs to bring something important to your attention, it will notify you when you access your Internet banking app.

If you have any doubts, call your bank.
