Chandigarh, August 30, 2025 – In today’s digital age, your smartphone is not just a device for calls but also your wallet, bank, and identity card. However, with convenience comes risk. Cybercriminals are getting smarter and can loot your lifetime savings through your phone.
If your mobile shows these unusual changes, it could mean hackers are targeting your bank account:
- Battery Draining Fast/Overheating – Hidden spyware or malware may be running in the background.
- Phone Acting on Its Own or Becoming Slow – Apps opening/closing automatically may mean someone else has remote control.
- Strange Messages or Pop-Ups – Unsolicited lottery, loan, or job offers could be phishing attempts.
- Unknown Apps Installed – Spy apps may be stealing your calls, messages, and banking details.
- Unusual Data Consumption – Malware may be sending your private data to external servers.
How to Stay Safe:
- Never share OTP, PIN, or passwords with anyone.
- Download apps only from official stores.
- Check app permissions carefully.
- Avoid banking on public Wi-Fi.
- Use strong passwords with two-factor authentication.
- Keep your phone software updated.
