There is a new kind of fraud becoming prevalent


Dear Saurabh Kumar,

We have always ensured your financial safety and that of your loved ones. In the same vein, we want to alert you of a new kind of fraud that is slowly becoming prevalent.

Fraudsters hack customer’s WhatsApp/Facebook account and send messages to the customer’s contacts, asking for money. In these desperate times, we have seen many genuine requests for funds, so a request from a known contact does not feel out of the ordinary. As the request has come from a known source, the contact then transfers the requested funds, without calling and confirming with the said person, about their need for funds.

Be careful and always confirm in such cases. If at all your WhatsApp or Facebook accounts get hacked, do bring it to the notice of the authorities.
Practice Safe Banking

Sincerely,
ICICI Bank Limited.
