7 Precautions to be taken while doing online transactions

Always use secure, password-protected Wi-Fi for internet access. Public Wi-Fi poses significant risks, especially for financial transactions.

Beware of clickbaits often sent by hackers or cybercriminals, tempting you to click on transaction-related links to steal your personal data.

Any promotional communications requesting your banking information should be ignored and reported as spam. Remember that your bank will never ask for your banking information.

Never share ATM PIN or bank details. Be cautious during transactions to prevent password exposure. Avoid social media for help to prevent information leaks.

Stick to trusted app platforms like Google Play or Apple App Store to avoid unauthorized charges and data theft from unreliable sources requesting personal and banking info.

To improve account security, add additional levels of security like OTP or biometric authentication.
