A new smishing (text) scam is in circulation. These text messages state that your Open24 online access has been frozen for security reasons. A sample of these texts read: 

"Your Open24 online access has been frozen for security reasons. To restore your account, follow the steps on open24-tsb.com urgent action needed. UJ4D2."

The links provided in these messages link to a phishing site that is branded similar to that of our Open24 website where customers are asked to enter their Open24 number, password, 6 digit access code and other personal information.
