5 important things to avoid credit card fraud

Do not share your information with anyone. You should never give your card's OTP, CVV, PIN, or password to anyone. Even if someone pretends to be a bank official, sharing your important information on a call or message is not free from danger. Fraudsters can take your information and withdraw money from your account. Always keep in mind that the bank never gives you the right to ask for such information.

Check the identity when you get a call from the bank. If you get a call from the bank and they ask for any information, then first check their identity. For this, call the bank's official website or customer care number. Never trust suspicious calls.

Keep a constant eye on your account. Pay attention to every activity related to your bank account and card. Keep transaction alerts on your mobile so that you can immediately know if any unauthorized transactions have taken place. If any suspicious transaction is seen, immediately inform the bank and the police.

Take full care of digital security. Do not use public Wi-Fi while doing any banking or money-related activity. Always keep your mobile and banking app updated. Download any new app only from a trusted source like Google Play Store or App Store. Stop downloading apps from suspicious links received on WhatsApp or email.

Take immediate action if you suspect any kind of fraud; first of all block your credit card. Inform your bank immediately and file a complaint with the police. You can also file a complaint on the National Cyber ​​Crime Reporting Portal. Taking action quickly can reduce your losses.
