In line with its continued support for the "Let's Be Aware" campaign launched by the Central Bank of Kuwait in collaboration with Kuwait Banking Association , National Bank of Kuwait reiterates its warnings to customers about the risks of using public Wi-Fi networks, with a particular focus on the increased risks at airports and cafes.
The aim of this campaign is to enhance financial literacy and raise awareness about digital safety principles among various society segments, including awareness messages on fraud protection, fake ads, and banking app hacks, in addition to emphasizing the need to report any suspicious transactions.
To this end, NBK warns against making any banking transactions using public Wi-Fi networks, as they are unsafe, unprotected, and can be easily hacked, as it is common for multiple public Wi-Fi networks to have the same name.
