When the mobile phone receives such a short message, I click on the link. Is it online fraud?

Not necessarily. It is suggested to kill the mobile phone virus first, and then go to the bank to change the password to ensure the safety of funds.

Internet telecom fraud is becoming more and more advanced, and technical crimes are common. Don't click on links in text messages, especially those that claim to be refunds from banks and Taobao. In addition, don't scan the QR code of unknown origin. Don't be credulous and avoid being cheated.
