How remote access is used to defraud a customer

Protect yourself

  • If someone calls you, claiming to be from First National Bank, and offers to help you install software on your PC to protect you, or asks you to call the bank to release a payment, please end the phone call immediately and contact the First National Bank fraud contact centre.
  • First National Bank will NEVER ask you to share your One-Time PIN (OTP) to reverse pending transactions or to block your banking profile.
  • NEVER disclose sensitive information, such as your username, password, card and PIN details to anyone - not even a bank official.

Remember:

Report fraud on the Banking App, or phone the First National Bank contact centre.
