Paste any message you're not sure about into the checker above. Whatever the story, no bank, wallet, BISP, PTA or police officer will ever ask you for an OTP, PIN or a fee by call or SMS.
Fake Benazir / Ehsaas payment messages ask for a fee, code or CNIC details. Real BISP messages come only from 8171. Check your message free.
What to do: BISP never charges a fee and only messages from 8171. Collect payments only at official BISP points with your thumbprint.
'Your account will be blocked', 'verify biometric', 'you got a bonus': these messages steal your PIN and OTP. Check yours free.
