Navigate the Internet safely to reduce the likelihood of online fraud.
Avoid fraudulent websites
 |
To ensure that you are going to an authentic Card Services site, type in entire Card Services website address into your browser instead of clicking on the link directly. For example, Australian customers would type in "www.cardservicesdirect.com.au" into the browser address field.
After clicking on the "login" button, verify the security of the site. This depends on the type of browser you use, Netscape 4.7 and IE 5.5 does this by showing a locked padlock. Microsoft Internet Explorer displays a lock on the status bar.
Click on the unbroken lock icon on the bottom of your browser's bar. Proceed to sign on to Internet Banking only if the site shows you the Card Services certificate. |
|
Beware of pop-up window that ask for your account number and PIN. Card Services login pages are always on a webpage and never in a pop-up window. |
|
If you suspect a website is fraudulent, leave the site. Do not follow any of the instructions it may present to you. |
