Credit Card Fraud

[Kusje]

I just received a SMS from DBS informing me of a transaction of ILS 10000.00 ONE LIS LTD was made on my DBS ESSO Card.

 

I called the number immediately and a quick check was made by him. He told me a few transactions were made two days ago. All the transactions were made overseas. He cancelled my card and will issue me a new card in a few days time. He told me the investigation will take 2 to 3 weeks. 

Wth. I am about to use the card to fuel ten...  

 

Make sure the number you called is the one listed on the card and not the one in the SMS.

Dear Customer, for security reasons, your card number ending **** has been blocked from use. Please call +65 63396963 immediately.

Oops, is it?

 

Yes of course. 

 

How do you know if the fellow sending you the SMS is legit or not?

After the alert by Kusje, I called the hotline, and she confirmed her colleague had received my call earlier and had blocked the card. 

Heng arh!

Yes of course.
