ACAMB advises bank customers against phishing scams

The Association of Corporate Communication and Marketing Professionals in Banks (ACAMB) has advised bank customers in Nigeria to remain vigilant against phishing scams and other forms of cyber fraud. Fraudsters are increasingly using fake bank alerts, cloned websites, and impersonation accounts to steal sensitive financial information.

ACAMB President, Jide Sipe, warned that criminals are adopting sophisticated methods to impersonate trusted banking brands and steal customers’ personal information. Customers are urged to avoid clicking links in unsolicited messages asking them to verify, reactivate, or secure their bank accounts, and instead verify such requests directly with their banks through official mobile applications, verified social media accounts, or published customer service numbers.
