Phishing messages imitate trusted organizations to persuade recipients to disclose passwords, financial details, or verification codes.
How to protect yourself
- Check the sender address and destination of links.
- Visit an organization website directly instead of using unexpected links.
- Never share one-time verification codes with callers or email contacts.
- Enable multifactor authentication where available.
If you believe you have been a victim of fraud, contact the relevant financial institution or appropriate authorities through independently verified contact information.
