The National Bank of Moldova (NBM) comes with this urge for card holders in the context of intensification, in the last days, of the attempts at manipulation to disclose confidential information that allows unauthorized access to their payment cards.
The NBM reiterates the need to ensure the confidentiality of the bank card data. In order to avoid unauthorized use of cards, the National Bank warns that no person is entitled to request information related to the bank card or single-use passwords received by SMS to confirm certain transactions.
Thus, the NBM calls citizens for caution, especially in the social context influenced by COVID-19, which may cause prejudice from potential profiteers.
