However, the fake BPI website contains come weird stuff upon filling up the details and information required.
Here are some of the suspicious stuff on the website:
- Asking for the Password of your Email Address
Official BPI website requires user for the email address, but it never asks for the password. Someone might just want to access your account to earn money
- Asking for your Credit Card CVV Number and Other Details
The bank would never ask the confidential details of their clients especially the Security Code or CVV, which is obviously a fraud.
The fake site will also redirect the victims to the official BPI website, but everything you will type in including personal details, account, password, and credit card details would be visible to the scammer.
Always check if you’re visiting the official BPI website to avoid being one of the countless fraud victims.
