⚠️ Important Notice: Beware of Scammers Exploiting Tech Outages ⚠️

Scammers are taking advantage of the global tech outage. Please rest assured that all CommBank services, including NetBank, the CommBank app, CommBiz, merchant payments, and our ATMs, are fully operational.

Remember, we will never ask for your NetBank Client ID, password, NetCode, or request you to log in directly from an SMS or email.

Here are three simple steps to protect yourself:

Stop 🛑: If a call, email, or text seems off, stop and take a moment to think. Legitimate organisations won’t pressure you to act instantly, especially asking you to click on links.

Check 🔎: Consult someone you trust or directly contact the organisation the message claims to be from.

Reject ❌: If you're unsure, hang up the call, delete the email, or block the phone number.

Always source technical information and updates from official sites only.

Stay safe and vigilant! 🛡️
