*IMPORTANT SECURITY TIPS FOR SAFE ONLINE BANKING*
1. Access your bank website only by typing the URL in the address bar of
your browser.
2. Do not click on any links in any e-mail message to access the site.
3. State Bank never sends e-mail and embedded links asking you to update
or verify confidential personal and security details. NEVER RESPOND to such
e-mails/phone calls/SMS if you receive.
4. Do not be lured if you receive an e-mail/SMS/phone call promising
reward for providing your personal information or for updating your account
details in the bank site.
5. Having the following will improve your internet security:
1. Newer version of Operating System with latest security patches.
2. Latest version of Browsers (IE 7.0 and above , Mozilla Firefox 3.1
and above, Opera 9.5 and above, Safari 3.5 and above, Google chrome,etc.)
3. Firewall is enabled.
4. Antivirus signatures applied
6. Scan your computer regularly with Antivirus to ensure that the system
is Virus/Trojan free.
7. Change your Internet Banking password at periodical intervals.
8. Always check the last log-in date and time in the post login page.
9. Avoid accessing Internet banking accounts from cyber cafes or shared
PCs.
*Now OnlineSBI is EV-SSL certified *
- What is Extended Validation SSL?
Extended Validation SSL Certificates give high-security web browser
information to clearly identify a website?s organizational identity. For
example, if you use Microsoft® Internet Explorer 7 to visit a website
secured with an SSL Certificate that meets the Extended Validation Standard,
IE7 will cause the URL address bar to turn green. A display next to the
green bar will toggle between the organization name listed in the
certificate and the Certificate Authority (VeriSign, for example). Firefox 3
also supports Extended Validation SSL. Other browsers are expected to offer
Extended Validation visibility in upcoming releases. Older browsers will
display Extended Validation SSL Certificates with the same security symbols
as in the existing SSL Certificates.

3. Safeguard yourself from credit card frauds

Safeguard yourself from credit card frauds.In recent times, there have been
a spate of news items revealing a credit card fraud. In one such item, two
youngsters were caught duping credit card holders by offering them new
credit cards with higher credit limits by trading in their old credit cards.
The youngsters then used the old cards to make their purchases, mostly
electronics. This is how they laid the plot.
They would call up credit card holders representing themselves as employees
of the credit card company. They would inform these clueless customers about
a new scheme about new credit cards with greater purchase limits in exchange
of old ones. Then they would also inform customers that the company's
representative would soon visit them with the new card, which would be
activated as soon as they filled in a form!
*This news only reinstates the importance of being a vigilant customer and
using credit cards with utmost prudence. Here are a few things one can do:*
*1.* If you lose your credit card, it is necessary to inform your credit
card company immediately. This will enable the card issuer to freeze the
card with immediate effect and prevent any purchases on the card. The
important thing for you is that your liability is limited once you inform
the credit card issuer.
*2.* Destroy your old card completely before you begin using your new card.
This is important even if your old card has expired or you are upgrading
your card.
*3.* Keep your card in a safe place and do not allow other people to handle
it.
*4.* Be prudent about signing up for new offers. Double-check the
genuineness of the scheme. A simple way to verify genuineness of any scheme
is to call up the credit card company and inquiring with them.
*5.* Change your PIN at regular intervals. Do not use obvious PIN like birth
dates.
*6.* Inform your credit card company immediately if you do not receive your
monthly credit statement. It could be a case of identity theft where the
fraudster has changed your billing address.
*7.* Use chip based credit cards. These cards offer better security than
credit cards with black magnetic stripes. This is because in a chip based
card, all information is stored in the small chip in encrypted format and it
also uses a PIN. This makes changing or copying this data extremely
difficult.
*8.* So, the chance of data being misused while swiping the card is very
remote. It is the highest level of security that credit card companies can
offer at present. Citibank and Kotak Mahindra issue chip based cards to
select high range customers. Axis bank's VISA Platinum card is also
chip-based. HDFC Bank also has begun issuing these cards.
*9.* Be careful while shopping online. This is because you are required to
give the CVV number for making purchases over the Internet. For this, be
sure you shop only from secure websites. Ensure that the website is
certified by VeriSign. Look for a yellow lock on the bottom right hand
corner of the screen.
*10.* If you have a large credit limit on your card and use it frequently
for several purchases including online and telephone purchases, it is a good
idea to get your card insured. You cannot prevent credit card fraud but at
least minimize its impact on your financial stability! You can protect
yourself from fraudulent charges on your card up to 12 hours before
reporting the loss to the credit card issuer.
*Note:- Pls pass on all of my good emails to your good friends.*
