What is Smishing?

Smishing is phishing, but via SMS or mobile message: a message containing a link or number asking you to update your information, claim a prize, resolve an account issue, or confirm a transaction.

Do not click the link or call the number in the message; contact your bank through the app or the official number.

The Central Bank has specifically warned against smishing messages used in financial fraud.
