ICICI Bank: Notice of Bank Fraud: ICICI Bank has informed its clients about financial fraud in a novel approach in the face of the ever-evolving ways of this kind of fraud.

The banking industry has gone digital, which has made people's jobs simpler. Many of these procedures that formerly required a trip to the bank branch may now be completed quickly and easily while sitting at home. But this has also meant that the risks have escalated. Fraud involving digital banking is becoming more and more common. The fact that violent criminals are always coming up with new ways to trick innocent people out of their savings and hard-earned money is what makes them the most dangerous. ICICI Bank, a private sector bank, has alerted its clientele about one such novel technique.

An email notice was issued by the bank.

This time, ICICI Bank has notified every one of its clients by email. The bank informed the clients via email that fraudsters are defrauding consumers by pretending to be bank staff. Customers have been warned by the bank that identity thieves may approach them pretending to be bank officials or staff and request private information. You will be scammed right away if you provide them information by accident.

No bank staff has ever asked a client for sensitive or personal information, but fraudsters may, according to ICICI Bank. Customers have received an email outlining the necessary actions to take in order to save their hard-earned money.

You'll pay a heavy price for one error.

According to the email, all it takes to lose your hard-earned money is one mistake—giving information to a scammer who contacts you pretending to be a bank employee. These calls may come in, with the caller introducing themselves as bank employees. He might even provide his name and employee ID to gain your confidence. Once he has gained your trust, he may ask for details such as your card number, password, CVV, and OTP.

These bluffs may be used.

You can be informed that you can upgrade your credit card, only to trick you. After that, you can be prompted for your card number, CVV, and OTP in order to upgrade your credit card and raise your credit limit. They will release your card as soon as you inform them of all of this. As a result, never provide important or personal information to anyone.

Report in this manner

The bank will never ask you for this kind of information. You will never be asked to move funds to another bank account by the bank. Should you ever get an unsolicited contact requesting such details, you need to notify National Cybercrime right once. You may contact the hotline at 1930 or visit their website, cybercrime.gov.in, for more information.
