Fraudsters flooded Oschadbank clients with emails: how not to lose access to your account.


The head of Oschadbank, Serhiy Naumov, warned citizens about a new type of phishing attacks that are sent using the bank's name. Fraudsters send emails from suspicious addresses that resemble official messages from Oschadbank.
These emails inform users about temporary restrictions on certain account functions for security purposes. The fraudsters offer users to go through a procedure to confirm their personal and contact details to regain access. They claim that this is a requirement of Regulation UA 6/1005675.
Bank employees confirm that these messages are not official and belong to the fraudsters. Naumov urged citizens to be cautious and not to trust such messages in order not to become victims of phishing.
A new way of fraudster attacks
It is also important to mention that fraudsters have found a new way to access Ukrainians' accounts - through SMS.
