PLEASE ADVISE AS MANY STAFF AND FAMILY AS POSSIBLE
BANKING SCAM
You will receive a SMS from a number similar as the one that you get bank notifications from. The SMS will indicate a problem on your
account and a “consultant” will contact you.
* When the “consultant” contacts you he/she will start confirming all your details: account number and then ask you what kind of a phone you are using.
* The fraudsters will then contact your cell phone provider and perform a SIM Swap.
* The fraudsters will then be able to receive OTP’s (One Time Pins) and/or RVN’s (Random Verification Numbers) from your bank and have access to your bank
accounts.
* By the time you realize that your cell number is
not working your money will be out of your account.
pls broadcast!
