Fake e-shops notification

| 20.03.2020

Dear clients,

We would like to draw your attention to fake e-shops with medical devices that exploit the Covid-19 situation. Their goal is to obtain sensitive information such as credit card numbers, personal information or spread malware.

Fraudulent e-shops create a serious impression. They offer face masks or disinfectants that are in high demand today. Fake online stores often occur on social networks. However, after you enter your credit card ID (number, expiration and CVV code) and pay, the goods are not delivered to you.

There may be more online stores, suspicious emails or phone calls using the situation. Therefore, please be careful when providing personal and identification data.

Recommendations on how to protect yourself from attackers:

• do not open e-mail messages, their attachments and websites that seem suspicious to you,
• in case of suspicious phone calls, do not enter your sensitive information,
• do not enter your card details in unverified e-shops on the Internet,
• You can verify the e-shop by finding reviews on the Internet.

For more information and tips to help you identify a fake e-shop, visit the attached blog.

If you find a fake or suspicious e-mail, please contact the bank at [email protected] or via DIALOG Live on 0800 001 100.

Yours sincerely

Tatra banka
