How can I spot fraud and scams targeting bank customers and what should I do if Ive shared my details?

A Moaju Team Answered by

Be cautious of unexpected calls, texts or emails asking you to click a link, move money, share passwords or reveal one-time security codes. Your bank should not ask for your full online banking password or security codes in an unsolicited message or call, so contact it using the number on your card or its official website. If you may have shared details or sent money, contact your bank immediately and ask what protective steps are available, then report suspected fraud to An Garda Síochána. You can also check guidance from the Central Bank of Ireland, Citizens Information or MABS.
