ICICI Bank:  Alert - Do not forget these 3 mistakes, your bank account may be empty

The bank believes that it is more likely to be fraud, especially in the festive season. Because customers shop more during this time.


The second-largest private bank ICICI Bank (ICICI Bank) from the country has issued an alert for its customers. An advisory has been issued to ensure that customers do not break into the account of banking fraud during festivals. Banking frauds have increased significantly in the recent past. The bank believes that it is more likely to be fraud, especially in the festive season. Because, during this time customers make more purchases, at the same time hackers also keep in mind that customers make a small mistake and clear the bank account. But, ICICI Bank has asked customers to be alert against banking fraud.

Stay alert from fraud

ICICI Bank has tried to convince customers through an image on its official Twitter account that some mistakes may be small, but the losses may be bigger than them. According to ICICI Bank, you are not asked for any PIN while receiving money. If someone is asking for a PIN to receive money from you, then it is clearly a sign of fraud. Stay alert from such people and never enter the PIN simultaneously. The bank has also shared some tips to avoid such fraud.

Three tips to avoid banking fraud

According to ICICI Bank's tweet, before sanctioning such fraud requests, consider these three 

• Things. Stop before inserting a pin.
• Think, what is the need to enter a PIN to receive money.
• If there is a possibility of fraud, immediately declare that request.

How to keep bank account safe

If you get such a request, then understand that it is a fraud request. According to the bank, no PIN is sought from customers to receive money. If there is a request to receive money, they also take careful steps. If you think it is suspected fraud, then it is wise to cancel your request. By doing this, your account will be completely safe. If there is a slight omission, then hackers can empty your account. ICICI Bank has appealed to its customers to share this message with as many people as possible so that everyone knows about such fraud.

This is how fraud happens

1. If your phone has not been in the network for a long time and you are not receiving any call, contact your mobile operator immediately.
2. Do not share your mobile number on social media platforms.
3. If you suspect a SIM swap, contact your mobile operator immediately.
4. Do not switch off your phone if you are getting frequent calls. It may happen that fraudsters want you to switch off the phone and they do their work.
5. To get all your transactions and other updates, get both SMS and e-mail alerts turned on.
6. Periodically check your bank statements and online banking transaction history continuously.
