Hang Seng Bank warns customers of fraud

Customers were advised to report suspicious emails and websites posing as Hang Seng Bank.

Hang Seng warned the public of a recent fraudulent Hang Seng Bank Facebook account with an embedded link ‘hxxps://hangseng[.]web-hk-logiin[.]com’ and a specific clickable link, ‘hxxps://hangseng[.]apply-hk[.]com’.

These links may redirect users to fraudulent websites and a WhatsApp account.

 The fake Facebook account and related links using the bank’s logo ask users to provide personal and e-banking login information to buy products or services on fraudulent websites.

Hang Seng declares no affiliation with these accounts and websites. Its only official websites are www.hangseng.com and www.hangseng.com.cn.

The bank advised its customers to report any suspicious emails, SMS, Facebook accounts, or websites claiming to be Hang Seng Bank to phishing@hangseng.com and delete them afterwards.
