“A #Fake message issued in the name of SBI is asking customers to update their PAN number to avoid their account from getting blocked,” PIB Fact Check tweeted.

“Never respond to emails/SMS asking to share your personal or banking details,” it added. Scammers are sending fake messages such as: “Dear Customer your SBI YONO Account Closed Today Contact now And Update your PAN MUMBER details in the Link.” A link accompanies the SMS. You risk losing all your money in your bank account and your personal data by clicking on scam links. Clicking any link sent by a scammer on your phone or email-id provides scammers with the necessary data required to access your account. If you want to keep the money in your bank account safe then never respond to any email/SMS/Whatsapp asking to share personal or banking details. If you have received such a message then report it via email and phone call
