Danger! More and more bank customers fall for fraudulent stitches!

Currently there are alarming messages about attempts to fraud that targeted bank customers. Victims are increasingly being tempted to install remote maintenance software after they have received fake SMS messages on behalf of the tax office. These messages contain links that lead to the installation of the software. After installation, the fraudsters take over the victims' personal data and then contact them by phone. They pretend to be bank employees and warn of alleged unauthorized access to bank accounts. Under pressure, they try to persuade the victims to approve online payments using push tan procedures. This is reported by Hypo Upper Austria and asks its customers to never disclose personal data, not even to the banking employee of the bank, such as Volksblatt.at

Another worrying fraud, which is particularly useful on social media and on the Internet, concerns the supposed investment option with high returns in minimal investments. Celebrities are cited in fake contributions that announce their quick rich. Interested parties are directed to dubious broker pages who often do not provide any imprint or trustworthy contact information. After registration, personal data will be queried and regular calls will be initiated by the alleged "investment consultant". These fraudsters joy high profits, while they demand additional fees for supposed payments without ever making any money. These internships are part of a comprehensive fraud system, which is also described in detail by Hypoverinsbank.de . The main warning: If an offer seems too good to be true, it is probably that too. Those affected are advised to inform the bank as soon as possible and to block access data.
