This is perhaps the most protected company in the country when it comes to the interface with civilian customers, but Isracard also suffers a cyber attack and warns its customers against impersonation messages. Many citizens have received messages asking them to confirm their identity details including the secret code that appears on the back of the card and it allows those who attack on the other side to use the credit card. Unlike other civilian companies that chose not to deal with the phenomenon, Isracard rushed to take action and filed a complaint with the police.
In addition, Isracard announced this morning to its millions of customers that anyone who is injured is asked to contact the company as soon as possible. “The Isracard Group, in cooperation with the Israel Police and the National and Financial Cyber System, addresses the issue with all the tools at its disposal.”
The company asks customers to pay attention “We will not voluntarily ask for personal information such as a full credit card number or the three digits on the back of the card.
In such a company, they asked for help from the national cyber system, where it is estimated that these are foreigners who are launching the attack from several countries. They use a number of servers that are connected to a system that sends messages with the name in English – Isracard. The biggest problem is that on some mobiles this message can reach the message page of the real Isracard company and provide the customer with a feeling that it is an authentic message. This is why the credit company chose to make it clear that the company in no way demands from its customers the digits on the back of the card, and the delivery of these digits is done only for the purpose of purchase since whoever delivers them will allow the card to be used.
