Beware of fraudulent SMS messages impersonating your bank

ICICI Bank
Think before
you click!
Always Verify Before You Act!
Dear Customer,

Fraudsters send fake SMS messages which seem to be sent by your bank. These fake messages could be about Credit Cards, KYC, reward points or account alerts and contain malicious links designed to steal your information.
 
How to spot a fraudulent SMS:
 
  Sent from an unknown number (not official bank IDs)
 
  Contains suspicious or misspelt links
 
  Creates urgency, e.g. expiring reward points, account closure threats, limit reductions, etc.
 
  Asks for confidential personal or financial details
What you should remember:
 
  Genuine SMS messages from ICICI Bank come only from the Bank’s official sender IDs like ICICIB, ICICIT, ICICIC, ICICIN
 
  ICICI Bank will never ask for OTP, PIN, CVV or passwords, through any channel.
 
  Never share OTP, PIN, CVV or passwords with anyone, even if they claim to be an ICICI Bank employee
 
Stay Safe:
 
  Do not click on links from unknown or unverified senders
 
  Never share sensitive account related information
 
  Always use official ICICI Bank channels for transactions and queries
