    The bank stated in a statement received by Sumaria News that it is keen to educate its customers and the public about sound practices in using electronic services in general, and to direct the customer to take caution and care, to ward off the risks that may result from any attempts to access the customer's personal and financial information, through electronic fraud, telephone fraud, viruses and spyware, and identity theft.




    The bank advised its customers to "adhere to the following guidelines: avoid easy knowledge of the password, maintain its confidentiality, avoid using common and well-known passwords that are easy to guess and change them periodically. The bank advises its customers - for their security and safety - to refrain from using known information such as date of birth, phone number or any easily recognizable part of the customer's name as a password."

    It stressed "avoid disclosing the password and personal data and maintaining the confidentiality of the salary card number (Master or Visa Card), Internet banking and the mobile banking application, and not disclosing them even to bank employees, and updating the customer's information and data, whether the salary is domiciled or otherwise, whenever there is a change through the branches."

    The bank stressed "continuously checking your account movements (via account statement, movements in the mobile application), and in case of doubt about any of them, review your branch or the Banking Awareness and Public Protection Department in the bank's general management."

    The bank explained examples of fraudulent messages:

    1- Phishing messages..
    These messages are sent to you by impersonating an employee at the bank you deal with, where they send you messages asking you for information about your bank account or credit card under the pretext of verifying their numbers.

    2- Fraud through a trick of browsing your account
    Many users have been tricked on social networks through the trick of "Find out who browsed your account on Facebook" or any other social network.

    3- Prize winning messages
    Such messages claim that you have won valuable prizes or a trip to a certain country, and the sender of the message asks you to pay a certain amount to receive your prize, never do that.
    4- Fraud through collecting donations
    Collecting money in a deceptive manner, as these fraudsters publish fake stories about a patient in need of treatment or a poor family or others and request donations from social network users.

    5- Online job offers
    If you apply for a job online, you will definitely be asked to fill out an application form, you can do that but be careful not to write down your bank account and credit card numbers.

    The bank provided "tips to protect you from fraud attempts: Do not interact with people who ask you to pay a small amount of money to get a prize or gift or other offers, do not agree to transfer a conversation with a specific person outside of social networks, such as communicating via WhatsApp or providing this person's email address, verify the identity of people who message you due to an emergency while claiming to be your friends or relatives, messages that include spelling and grammatical errors are always suspicious and you should be careful of them."

    The bank stressed that "if you want to provide help or assistance, do so through official and trusted sources, do not trust pages representing large companies or public figures that you have not verified, do not trust any social pages that claim that they will make you a quick profit through the Internet or work from home, do not click on links that you receive via WhatsApp or social networks or those that are published in comments."

    He stated, "Please take precautions to avoid falling victim to criminal methods that aim to defraud citizens and steal their money by having people impersonate employees working in financial institutions, international institutions, or private companies, and then do the following:

    Communicating with customers via social media (Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp) under the pretext of providing financial assistance, prizes, or monthly salaries for a specific period, in exchange for obtaining the customer's personal information, data and a photo of the bank card granted to him, the secret number, and the OTP verification code.

    Using the necessary data and information to create accounts in the name of customers, modify their account data, update their data, or request the number that will be sent to you by SMS, and then carrying out electronic transfer operations for the purpose of paying bills and purchases, charging mobile phone balances, or making electronic money transfers to other people.

    Communicating with the beneficiaries of financial transfers under the pretext of executing them in their favor by mistake, and then asking them to reverse the amount by transferring to a specific account or charging a specific phone balance.
