Bank Fishing Scam

A fake security alert that led to stolen banking credentials.

A person holds a smartphone while sitting at a desk with a laptop, coffee mug, and wallet nearby. The laptop screen is softly blurred, creating a quiet, reflective atmosphere.

I got a message claiming to be my bank, saying my account had been breched and I had to change my details. I didnt check the link or call the bank to check the validity of the claim. I inserted my details and my account was breched. Luckily the bank locked my account so I was not affected. This experience happened a while a go and has made me a lot more conscious of scammers. Be safe!
