Public Relations Manager of the bank, Mohamed Saeed had warned against the scam calls. He had noted on several customers losing significant amounts from their savings.<\/p>\n
Scammers often contact via direct phone calls, or via phishing mails. The mails often come with hyperlinks, which are in reality used to gain ‘back-door’ access into the personal laptops or devices of customers on which their bank login credentials are often stored.<\/p>\n
The scammers then use these credentials to siphon off funds from the accounts of their victims.<\/p>\n
