There has been an increasing trend of phishing scams where scammers would impersonate as bank staff and target victims through SMSes.
In the latest variant, members of public would receive unsolicited SMSes with alpha tags such as 'SG-DBS' or 'DBS-Notice' claiming that their card had been blocked due to unusual activity, or that their bank account had been frozen because of suspicious activities. After entering the spoofed website, the victims would be redirected to another spoofed webpage requesting them to key in the One-Time Passwords received on their mobile phones.
Always verify the authenticity of claims of problems with your bank account or cards issued by the bank with the official bank website or sources;Report any fraudulent transactions to your bank immediately.
