Zaporozhtsy in social networks warn each other of another exacerbation of sms scammers.

Scammers are cynical enough and activate their activities in the fall, when people with heightened emotionality perceive a more painful transition from hot weather to cold and rain, reducing the daylight hours. It is during this period that a person becomes more vulnerable, irritable and prone to illogical actions.

This condition is also used by sms scammers. And besides, users of social networks say that sms come to the phone at night, when all normal people are relaxed and unprepared for surprises.

Previously, these were messages allegedly from various banks, which stated that: "Your card is locked. Call this person on the phone, "and it was about accounts in the largest banks of the country such as Oschadbank and Privatbank, and surely the Cossacks used the services of one of them.

Those who called back to these phones, at the other end of the line, explained that it was the bank's security service, and in order to find out the reason for the blockage, the client had to dictate the details of his card. And of course, those of the citizens who gave their confidential data lost all the hard earned money on the accounts.

But scammers respond very quickly to today's realities, and now the phone can receive a call supposedly from volunteers, almost from the front, for which a special noise effect is created that collect money for thermal imagers, socks, blankets, for fighters in the ATU zone, and are urged to transfer money to the specified account.

And if in your voice, the subscriber on the other side of the phone, hears doubt, then you immediately tell a pitiful story about how a 70-80-year-old pensioner has already transferred the money, and you do not want such a syakoy.

So, dear Cossacks, be vigilant and reasonable, do not allow dishonest fraudsters to fool you. And if a similar message has come to your phone, do not call back to the phone indicated in it, otherwise you risk losing your savings. And be sure to report the receipt of a suspicious SMS in the Bank's Contact Center.
