ING Bank is one of the largest banks in Romania, with many customers throughout the country, but unfortunately they have to be careful because during this period it seems that they are targeted by new phishing attacks. If until recently these were meant to scare people that their account was blocked and they were asked for personal data to unlock it, now hackers change their strategy a bit and start sending emails with information about Home'Bank updates.
ING Bank constantly warns its customers throughout Romania about these issues, but people need to understand them in order to properly protect themselves against attacks. In the case of these new messages that tell ING Bank customers that there are updates for Home'Bank, of course they are required to access a certain link to access those updates, but they are directed to a malicious website, a clone of the bank .
ING Bank: Serious Warning for Romanian Customers
In these situations, ING Bank cannot do more than warn customers about the dangers of accessing these links and entering personal data on those websites. Unfortunately, in these situations, customers end up providing hackers with personal data that allows them to access their ING Bank accounts and possibly even transfer money from them, and the bank says that this money will be difficult to recover.
ING Bank has on its website a variety of information on how customers can protect themselves from these types of attacks, but also on what any customer should do when they become a victim. If you manage to detect in advance that you are the victim of a phishing attack, then you may be able to seek the help of ING Bank to protect you, but otherwise you may run out of money, so it is good to read the information in advance. provided by ING Bank.
ING Bank is not the only bank that warns of such issues and is not the only one whose customers are the target of hackers during this period, unfortunately.
