IoM Bank issues scam warning

Thu, 22 Mar 2018

The Isle of Man Bank is warning of another scam targeting its customers.

The bank is urging customers to be vigilant following a smishing attack - where text messages from fraudsters claim to be from the bank.

The message urges the recipient to ring a number about a fraudulent transaction.

However, the bank says this message doesn't look like it comes from the company, unlike previous attacks.

The bank says customers should only contact the firm on published numbers and make sure friends and family are aware of the attack to prevent them being scammed.
