Dear customer, beware of fake sites- before logging into onlinesbi for making transactions, please ensure that the URL address bar begins with https:// with padlock symbol. Click the padlock to check the Security Certificate. Please notify any unauthorised electronic transaction on 1-800-425-3800/1-800-11-2211 immediately. Longer the time taken to notify, higher would be the risk of loss to you. In case your mobile is deactivated without your request or you get a call in this regard, somebody may be trying to get a duplicate SIM/ steal your credentials like OTP (One time password), confidential details for beneficiary registration etc. Please be cautious.
