  • Strong Credentials: Use strong, unique passwords for your online banking accounts and enable two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever available. Never share your OTPs with anyone, not even bank representatives.
  • Website Security: Always verify the bank's website address before entering your credentials. Look for typos or signs that indicate the website might be fake or fraudulent.
  • Report Phishing Attempts: If you encounter a phishing attempt, report it to the bank immediately. This helps us track phishers and strengthen our security measures.
