A scam is currently doing the rounds under the guise of our highly successful Fuel Rewards campaign where customers may receive up to 15% back when they purchase fuel with certain FNB cards.
Through this scam people are being requested to provide their details in order to receive fuel rewards. The email is nothing more than a phishing scam that has been circulating under different guises for several years. The scammer hopes to obtain the victim's banking and login details in order to defraud him/her.
FNB advises that no action apart from swiping your qualifying card is required to receive FNB Fuel Rewards.
FNB will NEVER ask for your banking details. FNB will also NEVER ask for your PIN or Internet Banking login details. Any request for such information is a scam.
