HSBC reminds customers that it has no connection to the phishing websites. Customers should not enter sensitive personal infomation, chat with anyone, or open any links on the webpages. Similar phishing attempts may recur. HSBC reiterates that it will not send SMS or email messages with embedded links which direct customers to HSBC’s websites or mobile apps for account login, banking transactions, or submitting sensitive personal information and credit card details.
Customers are reminded to ensure they are connected to a valid HSBC site. The Bank’s Hong Kong domain is https://www.hsbc.com.hk. Customers should access banking services by typing this address into the browser search bar.
If customers are concerned, they should call the HSBC Personal Customer service hotline at 2233 3000 and report to the Police. “Scameter”, the government’s scam and pitfall search engine, is also available to help identify potential frauds.
