Have you received the message "Credit card overdue"? Many people have been cheated!

"Your credit card has expired and has been frozen ..."

What would you do if you received such a message? Is it directly ignored, or is it awe?

A few days ago, my friend Li Jie received such a short message. Because sister Li does have a credit card of this bank in her name, and it seems to be really overdue.

So Li Jie immediately called the customer service phone provided in the SMS and followed the voice prompts of the other party.

After switching to manual service, Sister Li informed the other party of her credit card number, the transaction security code behind the card and the verification code received by the mobile phone according to the request of the other party.

Later, Li Jie received a text message saying that the credit card was spent 4,998.79 yuan. At this time, Li Jie realized that he had been cheated.

This is the "credit card overdue" SMS fraud routine that many people have encountered these days.

How to avoid similar scams?

Not credulous

When you receive a message similar to "Credit card is frozen", whether it is overdue or not, you should check with the official customer service of the bank at the first time, or confirm it at the counter of a nearby bank. Never contact the phone number given in the message directly.

For brothers who often receive "overdue" SMS reminders, forget it. This kind of deception doesn't work for you.

pay no attention to

Don't click on various links in short messages at will, because Trojan virus may be hidden in them. If you accidentally click on the link, there will be an interface for entering the card number and password, not to mention personal information.

Don't reveal

Don't disclose personal credit card number, password and other information to strangers at will. Banks and other financial institutions will not require the verification code received by customers' mobile phones. If the so-called official customer service staff asks you for the verification code, you can directly judge it as a fraudster.
