Andrei Lisov, a member of the Russian Lawyers Union, warned that an unexpected transfer of money to the card from an unfamiliar sender could be part of a fraud scheme. In an interview with the agency “Hit the primer” He talks about a scheme in which the victim, after transferring a certain amount to the card, is called by a bank employee and informed about the provision of a loan or microloan.
According to the expert, the fraudster tries to learn personal data, card details and also requests an SMS code.
Andrey Lisov warned that no information should be transferred during such searches, including personal data, bank details and codes in SMS messages. According to him, fraudsters can apply for high-interest microloans or steal all the savings in the account.
The lawyer recommends that you confidently state that you have not applied for a loan and do not need a loan and refuse to provide any information. If you receive such a transfer, Lisov recommends contacting your bank to return the transfer to the sender in error.
