Banco Sabadell Makes It Clear: These Are the Most Common and Dangerous Frauds

In phishing, scammers send emails that appear to be from the bank, asking you to enter your details on a fake website. By providing this information, criminals can access your account.

Smishing is similar to phishing but through text messages (SMS). You receive an SMS that appears to be from the bank, asking you to click on a link or provide personal information.

Regarding vishing, scammers call you pretending to be bank employees. They inform you of supposed suspicious activities in your account and request confidential data or that you make transfers.

Additionally, quishing is a more recent technique that uses fake QR codes. By scanning these codes, you are directed to fraudulent websites seeking to steal your information.

Why Is It Vital to Follow Banco Sabadell's Advice?

Banco Sabadell emphasizes that they will never request sensitive data through text messages, emails, or calls. They will also not ask you to transfer your funds to a "safe account."
