Change SBI netbanking and YONO passwords

If you bank with SBI, now's a good time to change your net banking and YONO passwords, turn on two-factor authentication, and keep an eye out for any weird activity in your account.

Only trust messages about KYC or loans if they come through official SBI channels.

If you spot anything suspicious, report it right away on the National Cybercrime Reporting Portal.

Better safe than sorry!
