The National Bank urges the public not to panic

The National Bank of Moldova (NBM) has officially urged citizens not to panic and not to believe false reports of money being stolen as a result of the recent cyber-attack. The regulator issued a special statement in response to the spread of false information and misinterpretations in the public domain, which could mislead the public.

The regulator has emphasised that reports circulating online regarding large-scale theft of funds due to a leak of account numbers (IBANs) are false. An IBAN number alone does not give cybercriminals access to your savings. Strict, multi-tiered verification and authorisation procedures are still required to carry out any financial transactions.

All commercial banks in the country are operating as normal. The NBM reminds citizens of the need to follow basic digital hygiene rules: trust only official sources of information and under no circumstances disclose your passwords, SMS codes or confidential bank card details to third parties.
