Common scams
There are a number of common scams on the Internet and that you should be aware of in order to keep your data as secure as possible.
• Phishing. Phishing is the attempted theft of passwords or other confidential information to gain access to other people's bank accounts. The most common types of fraud are the creation of fake websites and/or portals and the falsification of the origin of email messages (although SMS, fax or telephone can also be used). These two techniques are used to fraudulently capture passwords to third-party services and applications or other sensitive information, such as account and card numbers (including expiry dates), in order to access your information or carry out transactions in your name. Please note that Banco Sabadell will never ask you to enter your bank details or access codes through a link.
• Malware. Malware is software that is installed on the computer without the user's consent and whose main purpose is to steal banking data in order to gain access to the user's accounts. One of the recommended precautions is to make sure that you always have your operating system and browser updated to the latest version.
• Viruses. Viruses are installed on the computer without the user's knowledge and have malicious purposes, such as destroying or stealing information or causing malfunctions in the computer or in the network to which it is connected. A virus, in addition to acting on the affected computer, spreads to other computers with which it may be related or connected. Some preventive measures include not using unknown programmes or files and not opening emails from unknown senders.
