It is common for scammers to pretend to be your bank in emails to obtain your data. Many people have received emails informing them of an anomaly and need to solve it. The National Police warned about a scam using SMS and not email. Cybercriminals are pretending to be bank employees in order to steal money or data. .

“If your bank sends you a SMS stating that your card cannot be used until your account is updated, don’t bite,” the Police wrote in a publication on its official Twitter account.

ATTENTION: You may receive a SMS from your bank stating that your card cannot be used until your account is updated. !

Another case of phishing, where the victim is tempted by a link to update their account so that they can use their cards again. It is a fake link that criminals can use to get the victim’s bank details, personal information and money.
