Card Security

Keep the PIN of your card as secret from everyone.

Tip: Use your card for online payments only to reliable sites e.g. choose a site you have done online payments in the past, make sure you visit the official site of the merchant, and read customers' reviews for that site.

Tip: Keep your card safe as you do with your personal belongings.

Stay safe when visiting an ATM
  • When entering your PIN, always use your hand as a shield.
  • Make sure the next customer is at a safe distance.
  • In case an ATM is being surrounded by suspicious individuals, especially at night, avoid using the specific machine.
  • Before taking advice from someone standing near an ATM and pretending to work for the Bank, walk in the branch to confirm whether that person is a Bank's employee.
  • When you finish, quickly put out of sight your card, money and receipt before leaving the ATM.

 

Always be aware of your surroundings!
