Banks in Qatar Take Measures to Prevent Fraud

Commercial banks in Qatar are proactively ensuring the safety and security of their customers’ financial information by implementing new policies and guidelines.

New Policy for International Transactions

In line with recent regulations, Commercial Bank has introduced a policy requiring customers to notify the bank before traveling abroad if they plan to use their debit or credit cards overseas. This is an important step in preventing unauthorized transactions.

Comprehensive Guide to Fraud Prevention

The bank has also released a comprehensive guide to help its customers protect themselves from fraud. The guide provides valuable tips and advice on how to safeguard their personal and financial information, including:

• Keeping cards in an organized manner so that if one is missing, it can be noticed immediately
• Never sharing or disclosing PINs with anyone, including family members, strangers, or cashiers and sales staff
• Using ATMs safely by standing close to the machine and shielding the screen and PIN pad with their body and other hand when entering their PIN

Additional Measures for Secure Banking

Commercial Bank is also advising its customers to take the following measures to ensure secure banking:

• Keeping computer firewall, spam filter, anti-virus, and anti-spyware protection active and up to date
• Being cautious of emails that make urgent requests for information or seem too good to be true
• Reporting any suspicious communications using the Commercial Bank name to the bank’s customer contact centre on 4449 0000

By taking these measures, Commercial Bank is committed to providing its customers with a safe and secure banking experience.
