How To Protect Yourself From These 4 Banking Scams That May Target You
Yahoo Life
There are many benefits to keeping your funds in a bank account, but one of the main reasons many people keep their money at a bank rather than under the mattress is the added security this provides. However, some scammers have come up with clever ways to access your bank account information or to get you to send them money from your secure accounts.
Here’s a look at some of the most common banking scams — plus, how you can avoid becoming a victim.
Phishing Scams
Phishing is a type of scam that targets consumers by sending them an email or text that appears to be from a well-known source, such as their bank. These messages will often ask you to click on a link or enter personal financial information, which the scammer can then use to access your accounts.
