Dear << Customer >> |
|
There has been an increase in banking scams and as a result, we urge you to be extra vigilant when banking online. |

|
|
Avoid email links
Never click on links in emails that claim to be from FNB. Scams try to scare you to click on a link. FNB never sends links in emails. |
|
Type it out
Always type in www.fnb.co.za into your browser to login to Online Banking. Never click on a link in an email or the internet to access Online Banking. |
|
Smart inContact
We recommend using the FNB Banking App to approve online transactions directly on the app instead of receiving an OTP. An OTP can be intercepted by fraudsters through phishing and sim swaps while Smart inContact on the app prevents this type of fraud. |

|
How does the FNB Banking App protect you? |

No OTPs
With Smart inContact you approve Online Banking transactions on the App. This is more secure than entering an OTP which could be intercepted by fraudsters. You will stop receiving an OTP on SMS & Email. |
Verify devices
Make sure the devices you use for Online Banking are verified to avoid unauthorised activity on your account. |
Report Fraud
inContact messages on the FNB Banking App are for all transactions, no matter what amount. If you see a transaction that is suspicious, you can click Report Fraud to call the 24/7 FNB Fraud line on 087 575 9444. |

details.
