CCAP advises consumers to watch out for these four modi operandi or new ways scammers or fraudsters exploit to lure their victims:
What to do: Never surrender your card to anyone. Banks will never ask you to submit your credit card for replacements or upgrades. Dispose of your old cards properly by punching holes on their magnetic strip or chip to ensure they cannot be reused by anyone. What to do: Be alert and track bank notifications about any changes made on your credit card account. If you received such notification or OTPs for transactions which you did not perform, call your bank immediately.
What to do: Keep your card details confidential, even from callers pretending to be from your bank. Banks will never ask for your CVV and OTP via a call, text or email links. If you accidentally divulged your CVV and OTP to a third party, call your bank immediately.4. SMS spoofing: This is an advanced type of smishing fraud in which the fraudster is able to mimic and send fake SMS messages using the target bank’s actual SMS sender ID or name.
