BANCA Transilvania sends all its clients in Romania an urgent information that everyone must know now, and this is because it talks about an extremely important issue that no one should ignore. Following the previous announcements that BANCA Transilvania made regarding security when it comes to using banking services, now comes a new one that focuses on mobile banking applications.
BANCA Transilvania, as you already know very well, provides us with several mobile banking applications that we can use to control our bank accounts from iPhone or Android, regardless of where we are. BANCA Transilvania launched BT Pay and NeoBT for managing bank accounts on iPhone and Android, as needed, and these applications are essential for interacting with the bank, including when it comes to online shopping.
BANCA Transilvania: Official EMERGENCY Information Sent to Romanian Customers
BANCA Transilvania tells us that these applications must be downloaded exclusively from the App Store or Google Play Store, and not from third-party application stores in order not to risk infecting our phones with malware, being spied on, or having data stolen by hackers. BANCA Transilvania also says that it is mandatory to use a PIN, or a biometric security system together with the application, and to register it on the same phone number registered with the bank.
BANCA Transilvania also tells us that when we register the card in the application, we should not provide anyone with our personal data, or that of the card, in order not to risk exposing them to people who could use them to steal our money. BANCA Transilvania says that it never asks us for personal or card data by email, SMS, or phone, so we don't have to provide them to anyone who asks us for this.
BANCA Transilvania explains on its website other essential information for our security when it comes to using its mobile banking applications, and it is important to keep them in mind to always be safe.
