INDONESIA - BANKING - Banks wage war on text message-based fraud



Bank Indonesia says it will hold a meeting with several national banks united in the banking mediation working group (WMGP) to discuss ways to fight fraudulent text messages leading to theft via bank transfers.
“The banks joined in WGMP have made commitments to cooperate in taking preventive measures to protect bank customers from such text messages. Bank Indonesia and WGMP members are ready to wage war on people who transfer request texts as a medium for theft,” Bank Indonesia spokesman Difi A. Johansyah says in a press release as quoted by tribunnews.com. (source)
