Scam Alert!
Never assume you won't fall victim to phishing scams. Be alert towards any emails requesting your particulars or to apply for a TAC number. DO NOT log in to Maybank2u.com via any email links.
Phone Scam
If you receive calls regarding credit cards or loans claiming to be from any financial institutions, please DO NOT share your username, password and TAC number. DO NOT respond to requests to update 3rd party TAC mobile number.
Nevertheless, we encourage you to take precaution when giving out any confidential information (including your credit card number) over the Internet/phone or any other channel.
How to prevent yourself from being victims of phishing scams!
Here are some easy steps to help you identify a phishing scam:
1. Email Phishing Scams
Sample phishing scam email #1
Sample phishing scam email #2
2. Manually Key in URL
Always manually type our URL address www.maybank2u.com.my into your browser to ensure that you are in the authentic Maybank2u.com website
3. Site Authentication
Before entering your username and password, observe the lock icon located next to the browser's address bar. The certificate should only be for www.maybank2u.com.my and no other. DO NOT click on any lock icons on the webpage itself. If you do not see any lock icon as shown in the images below, DO NOT PROCEED.
Internet Explorer
Firefox
Google Chrome
Safari
4. Image Verification
ONLY log in if you see your chosen image and phrase.
If you see any other Image, Phrase, or any of the samples shown below, DO NOT PROCEED.
Sample
• ENSURE the image and phrase shown is the one you personally chose.
• DO NOT key in your password if the image is not available.
• DO NOT key in your password if the image is "Loading".
Maybank will NEVER request for your personal banking ID, PIN number, TAC number and credit card information. Protect yourself. Don't fall into the phishing trap.
5. Update Your Browser
The latest version of several browsers can detect and warn you of many phishing sites. If you see a phishing warning message on your browser, DO NOT PROCEED.
For a safer internet banking experience, always download the latest version of your internet browser.
The bare minimum for better browser security is:
Internet Explorer 8/9
Mozilla Firefox 5.0.1
Google Chrome 13
