The buy now, pay later firm is one of several financial services companies warning customers about unsolicited phishing texts and emails.
Australia’s most well-known buy now, pay later firm Afterpay has warned of an increase in scams across the financial service industries, with customers being targeted by unsolicited phishing texts and emails.
Phishing is a type of scam where fraudsters send messages pretending to be from trusted sources in order to collect personal information.“We are aware of an SMS phishing campaign targeting our customers,” the company said.“If you receive an SMS asking you to confirm your Humm account details by clicking a link, please treat it as suspicious.”
Latitude has assured customers their account security has not been compromised and that there has been no unauthorised access or activity on their accounts.
