Protect Your GCash Account: Learn How to Stay Safe from Fraudulent Transactions
In recent news, over 30 individuals have filed complaints before the PNP Anti-Cyber Crime Unit in eastern Metro Manila after losing thousands of pesos in their GCash account. The victims are now wondering why they weren't alerted by text messages containing one-time passwords – a requirement before cash transfers through the e-wallet could be made.
With the increasing popularity of e-wallets and online transactions, it is important to know how to protect your accounts from fraudulent activities. Here are some tips to keep your GCash account safe:
- Never share your MPIN or one-time password with anyone, even with GCash customer service representatives.
- Use a strong and unique MPIN that is difficult to guess.
- Regularly check your transaction history for any suspicious activities.
- Enable security features such as biometric authentication and two-factor authentication.
- Contact GCash customer service immediately if you notice any unauthorized transactions in your account.
GCash has also introduced the "Double Safe" security feature, which uses facial verification as another measure to protect their customers. Remember to always be vigilant against scammers and protect your personal information.
