Someone calls you and says:
“I’m calling from your bank. Please tell me the OTP you just received so I can help you secure your account.”
🚨 STOP.
That OTP is meant for you—not for the person on the phone.
Scammers often pretend to be bank employees, customer-care agents, delivery companies, or even people you know. They may sound professional and create urgency to make you act without thinking.
🔴 Never share your:
❌ OTP
❌ PIN
❌ Password
❌ Card details
❌ Banking login details
Even if the caller knows your name or some personal information, do not automatically trust them.
If you receive a suspicious call:
End the call.
Do not share any code.
Contact your bank through its official channel.
🛡️ Remember:
Anyone who needs your OTP to “protect” your account may actually be trying to take control of it.
Pause. Verify. Protect yourself.
