1. What is Phishing?

Phishing is a fraud attempt by which offenders request personal data and personal banking data (username, Token device / M-Token generated passwords) and beyond.

The most frequently used channel for a phishing attack is e-mail. The e-mail you receive usually urges you to "update" or "confirm" the data of your Internet banking account or card by accessing an email link. This link takes you to a site very similar to the one you expect (a clone site) through which data is collected. The attacker get’s in possession of your e-mail address through various channels, of which most commonly used are: viruses, buying e-mail databases from specialized firms, or even hacking the IT systems of vendors e-mail services.

We encourage you to remain vigilant and never disclose personal information and bank personal data, even if the request seems to come from a source of trust.

 

2. How do you check if the site that you are currently on is secure?

You can easily check if you are on a secure website: the letter "s" must always appear in the address bar of your browser after "http". Therefore, the website address where you have access to your accounts must start with: https://www.brdoffice.ro In addition, to check if the connection is secure, you must verify that the lock displayed in the address bar is closed. When you move from a secure page (https) to an insecure one (http), your browser will post a warning message. DO NOT introduce the user code (user name) and the Token/M-Token generated password after receiving such a message. Beyond this, we recommend you to check the security certificate of the site.

 

3. How can you navigate the web safely?

To browse through the Internet safely, and especially on the web sites involving financial transactions, you can resort to some means of protection:

  • Avoid using a user with administrative privileges (like the Windows Administrator account);
  • Ensure that your operating system, installed on the PC or Phone, is updated;
  • Install the latest browser version;
  • Verify the contact section of the website (address, phone number, e-mail);
  • Check the link’s final destination by passing the mouse cursor over this and viewing the real address;
  • Totally delete “spam” messages and avoid cascading or pyramidal emails;
  • Avoid storing sensitive data (password, personal or banking data) in your personal email or in the social networks accounts;
  • Do not open attachments from messages coming from unknown contacts or having a suspicious content;
  • Don’t answer to requests for personal or confidential data (like passwords, PIN codes or card number);
  • Install an Antivirus and Firewall solution and have them regularly updated;
  • Every time you download an application, use secure sources to download it (manufacturer's page) and use applications from known vendors;
  • Protect your data by using complex passwords (both on your phone and on your PC / Laptop / Apps). Also, do not use the same password for all apps or accounts on social networks. Do not forget to use the logoff button every time you leave online applications, especially banking applications;
  • Try to avoid using public or "free" networks, especially when using banking / financial applications. Do not leave your laptop unattended, and if you ever find yourself in the situation where you have to leave your laptop unattended, make sure it is password protected.
