SPECIAL NOTICE



Dear Valued Customer,


Due to the increased number of online fraudulent activities, it is crucial to be vigilant when carrying out your bank transactions. Here are a few tips to ensure your safety and protection:



  • Be vigilant when answering calls from numbers or people claiming to be from the bank or known to you. Always verify legitimacy before discussing any matter.
  • Be careful of emails sent to you from people or organizations you may know asking you for banking or personal information.
  • Do not share the one-time password (OTP) you get when doing online transactions or fund transfers with any third-party.
  • Do not leave your mobile device unattended in a public location, including your work place, meeting rooms, or desks.
  • Imports and Exports Key Fact Document
  • Extended CHQs Key Fact Document
  • Activate SMS alerts with the bank on all your accounts and cards, so you will be notified of all transactions immediately.
  • Ensure your email address and password are secure and have two-factor authorization set up, so that only your devices will have access to your email, even if someone else gets access to your username and password.
  • Enable 3rd Challenge on Seylan Online and Mobile Banking service, which will prevent someone else knowing your username and password from getting access to your account.
  • Avoid the practice of pre-signing blank bank instruments (i.e., cheques) and documents, as this could expose you to unauthorized usage.
  • Verify all transactions conducted by authorized representatives to confirm their legitimacy.
  • Refrain from disclosing sensitive information, including bank login details, card information such as CVV and expiry date, or personal identification numbers (PIN), to anyone.
