40 customers of the bank found millions of rupees in one click!

The Dhaka Times Desk At least 40 customers of a private bank in the Indian state of Maharashtra have lost millions of rupees from their accounts!

These customers have earned this money in just one click within 3 days. This information has been given in a report by India.com.

ওই প্রতিবেদনে বলা হয়, ‘আপনার গ্রাহককে জানুন’ (কেওয়াইসি) নামক একটি প্রক্রিয়া ব্যাংক অ্যাকাউন্ট খুলতে কিংবা তথ্য আপডেট করতে ব্যবহৃত হয়ে থাকে। এই ধরনের একটি বার্তা প্রতিটি গ্রাহকের কাছেই যায়। এমন মেসেজে ক্লিক করে টাকা হারিয়েছেন ব্যাংকের ওইসব গ্রাহকরা।

An incident that happened to at least 40 customers over three days. Mumbai Police is investigating the incident. They have also prohibited citizens from clicking on any such message.

A message is also sent to customers saying the account has been blocked for updates, Indian news outlet NDTV reported. After clicking on that message, the clickers go to a fake website of the bank.

Customers are then asked to fill in account ID, password and other confidential information. This is how the cycle steals customer information. In this way they took information of 40 bank customers including TV actress Sweta Memon. Sweta has also filed a complaint with the concerned police station in this incident.

অভিযোগে অভিনেত্রী লিখেছেন যে, ‘গত ২ মার্চ আমার মোবাইলে একটি মেসেজ আসে। আমি ধরে নিয়েছিলাম এটি আমার ব্যাংক থেকে এসেছে। সেই মেসেজে ক্লিক করলে আমাকে অ্যাকাউন্ট নম্বর, পাসওয়ার্ড এবং ওটিপি দেওয়া হয়।’

এই নারী অভিনেত্রী আরও লিখেছেন, ‘মেসেজের কিছুক্ষণ পরই এক নারীর কাছ থেকে ফোন পেলাম। নারীটি নিজেকে ব্যাংকের আধিকারিক বলে দাবি করেন। সে আমাকে আমার ফোনে আসা আরেকটি ওটিপির সম্পর্কেও বলেন। আমি তখন তাকে ওটিপি দেই। তারপর আমার অ্যাকাউন্ট হতে ৫৭ হাজার ৬৩৬ রুপি গায়েব হয়ে যায়!’
