Scam Awareness

With increasing prevalence of scams, it’s important that you’re aware of the most common scams that could impact you and helpful tips you can use to protect yourself.

What should I do if I think someone has fraudulently used my Card?

If you believe someone has fraudulently used your Card, call us immediately on 1300 415 445 or +61 2 8908 6196 if you are overseas.

It is important that you contact us immediately if:

  • you’ve sent money or authorised a payment due to a scam
  • you’ve provided your identity information and/or banking details to someone who you believe is a scammer
  • you’ve found transactions you haven’t authorised.

Common Scams to Watch Out For

  • Impersonation scams
    Criminals pretending to be from reputable organisations can contact you and use different tactics to get you to share your personal or account information.

    For example, you may get a call, email or SMS that appears to come from us, another bank, or legitimate business, like a telephone or internet service provider, claiming that you need to confirm your identity or provide your One-Time PIN to continue managing your account online.

    If you get an SMS from us with a code to authorise a transaction, please ensure you read the whole SMS carefully as it might be shortened when it pops up on your screen.

    We’ll never pressure you to complete a transaction with your card or request your personal details, account details, your One-Time PIN or your password via email, SMS or by phone where you have not contacted us first.

    If you are ever unsure, you can contact us to make sure the request came from us.

  • Goods not received scams
    Criminals can also contact you via email or social media and advertise attractive sales or deals that link to a fraudulent website where you can make a purchase.

    For example, you may get Facebook or other type of social offers for seemingly great bargains, but after making a payment you won’t receive the item and you may get charged more than what was advertised.

  • Remote access scams
    Scammers may call and alert you to a ‘virus’ or ‘issue’ with your computer or account and request remote access to your computer to fix it. Never agree or provide anyone access to your computer. If you receive an unexpected phone call, text or email about your computer and remote access from someone claiming to be from a company or business you recognise, hang up or delete the message immediately.

What you can do to protect yourself

  • Recognise suspicious communications
    Learn to recognise suspicious communications, even if they appear to be coming from us. Please read all messages carefully. If unsure, call us using the verified numbers mentioned on our contact us page. Also, please avoid clicking on suspicious links or downloading attachments from unknown sources. Criminals often use links or attachments to install malware or obtain your personal information.

  • Pause before you pay
    Be mindful of retail websites and online or social media offers that are fake but appear genuine. Criminals always use a website that appears legitimate and request your account details and/or One-Time PIN to make a purchase or further transactions on your account.

  • Check before you share
    Never share your password, your One-Time PIN, or any other Online Activation Codes with anyone, even with us. If you give out your One-Time PIN or receive an SMS from KoganMoney advising your card has been added to a mobile wallet without your request, please call us immediately. Update your password regularly and make sure your contact details are correct so we can contact you about any potential scams.

  • Reporting scams
    If you believe you’ve been the victim of a scam, please call us using the verified numbers mentioned on our contact us page.

    Report any scams to Scamwatch, an independent website run by the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC).
