Since February 10, 2021, the banking industry has suffered massive SMS phishing attacks. To date, hundreds of customers of more than 200 banking institutions have suffered losses from stolen funds of more than 10 million yuan. We recommend that customers should be vigilant when receiving SMS messages. Here are some precautions for your consideration:
1. The domain name of our Bank’s official website is www.ocbc.com.cn, and please be alert to any website with a domain name similar to our Bank’s.
2. If the text message you receive contains external links, please be extra alert and do not open email attachments or web links from unknown sources.
3. Please always access the Internet Banking login interface through the Bank's official website, do not use browser favorites, and do not search through Baidu, Google, etc.
4. Criminals often send numerous spam SMS using pseudo base stations, and the real sender cannot be identified by the sender number of the SMS.
5. Counterfeit websites often use the Bank's official logo, images, and design style, which are very difficult to recognize and differentiate simply from the content of the webpage.
How can I be sure that I am accessing the Bank's website?
6. Do not complete billing and authorization operations on the same computer.
