How to avoid fraud on Pix?

Be careful on WhatsApp

Be cautious of money requests. If it's someone you know, make a phone call to confirm, but not through WhatsApp. Additionally, never share the validation code sent by the app if you didn't request it.

Be careful with passwords and suspicious links

Never share your data and passwords with third parties. If you receive a call or message requesting sensitive information, including your WhatsApp registration code, don't share it with anyone. It could be a scam to steal your data and perform financial transactions.

Check the recipient's information

Always double-check the recipient's details before making a Pix, as scammers may impersonate people you know and request a Pix. So, stay alert and always verify the details before finalising a payment.

Don't use public Wi-Fi for transactions

It's common for people to use Wi-Fi available in public transport, restaurants, and shopping centres, but you need to be cautious when using these networks. Security on these networks isn't considered strong, which makes it easier for hackers to access your personal information.
