Fake Refund SMS with Suspicious Links to Bank Accounts

⚠️ SCAM AWARENESS NOTICE Beware of Fake Refund SMS Messages Fraudsters may send messages claiming that a refund has been credited to your bank account, often mentioning a specific amount and providing a shortened link for “detailed information.” 🚨 Do NOT click suspicious links such as shortened URLs received through unexpected SMS messages. Remember: Never share your OTP, PIN, CVV, password, or banking details. Do not install apps or open links sent by unknown sources. Verify any refund directly through your bank’s official app/website or by contacting the company through its official contact details. A message showing a “Refund” transaction card does not by itself prove that money was actually credited. If you suspect fraud, report it immediately to your bank and the appropriate cybercrime authorities. Stay alert. Verify before you trust. 🔐
