Increasing digital scams

In an increasingly connected world, digital security becomes a fundamental priority. Recently, CaixaBank has alerted its customers about a new threat that seeks to take advantage of the confidence of users and can compromise their bank information.

The danger of digital certificate

Cyberdeliners have found a way to exploit the digital certificate issued by the National Currency and Timbre Factory (FNMT), a tool that is essential for a wide variety of online formalities. This new phishing campaign uses misleading emails that seem to come from FNMT to install Malware on victims’ devices.

Scam mechanisms

The messages that circulate among the users report on the availability of an attachment containing the digital certificate and the fiscal identification (NIF). However, what really hides behind these emails is a malicious executable, which, once downloaded, opens the door for criminals to access personal data.

How to avoid falling into the trap

In the face of this situation, CaixaBank offers key recommendations for its customers. Verifying sender authenticity is essential, as scammers often use officers to confuse users.

Practical tips

It is important to remember that FNMT does not send attachments by email or request access to links to download certificates. For this reason, CaixaBank advises not to open files of dubious origin or click on unknown links. In case of doubt, it is best to contact the bank or consult the official FNMT page.

A call to digital consciousness

Digital security is not only the responsibility of the institutions, but also of each user. Adopting a watchful attitude towards possible fraud is essential to protect privacy and finance. Being informed about current threats and following security recommendations is the best way to defend against cybercrime.
