Banking Fraud

Banking fraud is a serious and growing threat in today’s digital age, where cybercriminals exploit vulnerabilities in online banking systems, financial transactions, and personal information to steal money or sensitive data. At Cyber Awareness NGO, we are committed to helping individuals and organizations protect themselves against these fraudulent activities and offering support to victims of banking fraud.

What is Banking Fraud?

Banking fraud involves the illegal or unauthorized use of financial services or accounts to gain access to funds, personal information, or financial assets. Common types of banking fraud include:

• Identity Theft: Criminals use stolen personal information to open accounts or take over existing accounts, conducting unauthorized transactions.
• Phishing: Fraudsters send fake emails or messages that appear to be from legitimate banks, tricking individuals into providing their banking details.
• Card Skimming: Devices are used to capture credit or debit card information when customers swipe their cards at ATMs or payment terminals.
• Account Takeover: Hackers gain access to online banking accounts through stolen login credentials, allowing them to transfer funds or make purchases.
• Check Fraud: Counterfeit checks are created or altered to defraud individuals or businesses.
