Scammers may create SMSes that look like they are from “OCBC”, BUT:

1. We will never send an SMS to inform you about account closures or being locked out of your account.
2. We will never send an SMS with a link to reactivate your account.
3. Don't click on links in SMSes. Use OCBC’s official mobile banking app or type www.ocbc.com directly in your browser.
4. Don't provide your log-in ID, password or OTPs (One-Time Passwords received via SMS) to anyone, or key these into unverified webpages.
5. If you're ever in doubt, call our hotline directly at 1800 363 3333 (or +65 6363 3333, if you are overseas). Do not call any numbers provided in the SMS.
6. Visit ScamAlert.sg to learn more about scams and how to avoid falling prey to them.
   
   Spot the signs, stop the crime. Be alert, not a victim.
