Scam Watchlist

Stay ahead of fraudsters. Here are the most common scams targeting digital banking users today.

SMS & Email Phishing ("Smishing")

The Scam: You receive a text or email claiming to be from your bank (e.g., Revolut, Wise) stating "unauthorized login attempt" or "account blocked". It includes a link to a fake login page.

How to spot it: Banks will never ask you to click a link to unlock your account. Check the sender number/email carefully.

Fake Crypto Investment Platforms

The Scam: You are approached via social media (Instagram, Telegram) with an "investment opportunity" promising guaranteed high returns. They ask you to transfer crypto to a specific wallet.

How to spot it: "Guaranteed" returns do not exist. If it sounds too good to be true, it is. Legitimate platforms don't DM you.

The "Money Mule" Job Offer

The Scam: You see a job ad for "Payment Processing Agent" or similar. You are asked to receive money into your personal bank account and forward it to another account (keeping a commission).

How to spot it: Legitimate jobs don't use your personal bank account for company transfers. This is money laundering and is a criminal offense.

Tech Support Impersonation

The Scam: A caller claims to be from Amazon, Microsoft, or your bank's fraud team. They say your computer/account is compromised and ask you to download remote access software (AnyDesk, TeamViewer).

How to spot it: Never install software at the request of a cold caller. Hang up and call your bank's official number.
