Making a fake social media account and website has become very common. So, it is very important for a customer to spot a fake one when carrying out financial transactions.
Earlier, SBI had alerted people about the ongoing EMI fraud scheme. Scammers are calling up customers on the pretext of deferring the EMI payments, and asking them about their card details and eventually the OTP. This is one very common bank fraud, and several times the banks have informed the customers that they never call them for their OTP.
