Today I got call from a guy claiming as CIMB Niaga Staff and asked me to change my mobile number registered to my CIMB account. Before he finished talking bulls***, I just ended the call coz I know that guy is a con artist, fraudster, criminal, you just name it.
Btw the number of the fraudster or penipu who called me today is 081377767555 , +6281377767555.
Strangely when you receive the call, in the screen will appear CIMB Niaga info and the number 0418..I forgot the exact number. Just be careful and never follow their request. Just hang up the call and block the number.
Here some tips from CIMB website (http://branchlessbanking.cimbniaga.co.id/en/safe-transaction-tips/ )
Some examples of social engineering:
- Countless fraud cases occur through gift offering and many are deceived by this method. The fraudster pretends that he/she is representing the bank while calling the customers to tell them that they have won a recent event held by the bank. By taking advantage of the victim's psychological state, the fraudster will carry out the scheme in order to obtain classified information.
- The fraudster usually conducts false data update by disguising himself/herself as bank authorized representative to call and inform customer to change or update their data. Normally, the fraudster will ask for confidential information such as user ID, passcode, password and mPIN to be able to update the customer's account. By possessing such classified information from the customer, the fraudster is able to alter customer's bank account.
- Transaction cancellation is another form of social engineering fraud. In this case, the fraudster informs the customer on behalf of the bank that there is an unusual transaction recorded in the customer's bank account. In order to cancel this transaction, the criminal asks for the customer's confidential information such as user ID, passcode, password and mPIN to be able to access the customer's account.
Social Engineering adalah kejahatan di dalam dunia maya dimana pelaku kejahatan akan melakukan berbagai cara seperti pemberian hadiah, pengkinian data atau pembatalan suatu transaksi dengan tujuan untuk mendapatkan data rahasia nasabah. Setelah pelaku mendapatkan informasi seperti User ID, Passcode, Password dan mPIN maka si pelaku dengan leluasa dapat melakukan transaksi dari Rekening Anda dan mengalihkan dana tersebut kepada Rekening lainnya.
Perlu diingatkan kembali bahwa pihak Bank CIMB Niaga tidak pernah meminta kepada Nasabah informasi yang bersifat rahasia seperti User ID, Passcode, Password dan mPIN. Sehingga jika terdapat pihak yang mengaku sebagai pihak Bank CIMB Niaga menghubungi Anda untuk membantu proses perubahan data pada akun rekening yang merupakan kebijakan dari Bank dan meminta informasi – informasi yang bersifat rahasia seperti User ID, Passcode, Password dan mPIN untuk tidak memberikannya dan segera laporkan ke Phone Banking di 14041.
