Banks to remove clickable links in emails, SMSes sent to customers as part of new security measures

The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) and the Association of Banks in Singapore (ABS) said that these measures will bolster the security of digital banking, given that it will lengthen the time taken for certain online banking transactions, and also provide an additional layer of security to protect customers’ funds.

What does this notificatión serve? What is needed is an OTP sent to a registered email to be approved before any change can be done, especially for any change in the registered phone number

Nowadays, the registered phone number is central to almost all dealings, so any change must be properly approved and no breach

Knn, again, these idiots dont seem to know their job at all

So this is an implicit admission that the banks have sent clickable links before to customers, and hence there was a security oversight.

I received two authentic emails from DBS today.

One is to say that they will remove clickable links from emails and SMS wef today.

Guess what, the second email to confirm a transaction still has a clickable link (leading to the DBS homepage). Fail.
