The common way of scamming is sending SMS messages saying they’re from the bank, but the easiest way to find if fraud or true is to look at the contact name. If it is a number, then its a definitely a fraud. But if its a name or code, like SIBSMS for South Indian Bank in iPhones, its most probably true. 

Tip: Never click on links or share personal information directly from the SMS. If in doubt, call the bank using the official number to confirm.

And yeah, I’m doing this because I’m inspired by Mark Rober and his mission to destroy the scam industry.

*This is a program to raise awareness against online scams, where I’ll post the way they scam and how to be protected from it. I’ll post every Sunday, as a weekly programme.
