FNB clients beware! A new, very plausible ‘phishing’ scam is reeling in unsuspecting victims as we speak.

Phishing is the term used to describe the practice where scam artists send you an email regarding your bank account. They might ask you to sign in with a username and password.

Don’t fall for it! Your bank will never send you an email asking for login details.
