Online Life Insurance Scams Target Buyers Through Fake Offers

“Customers should remain vigilant, verify all communications through official insurer channels, and never share sensitive information such as One-Time Passwords (OTPs), or policy credentials. Legitimate companies like PNB MetLife will never ask customers to share sensitive information. Any such request should be treated as a red flag and reported immediately to the insurance company through its official customer support channels. A few simple precautions can go a long way in helping individuals”

“Digital technology has made life insurance far more accessible and convenient, enabling customers to seamlessly manage their protection needs online. However, as digital interactions grow, so do attempts by fraudsters to exploit trust through fake policy offers, phishing links, fraudulent payment requests, insurance-linked loan and benefit scams, fake regulator calls, and impersonation of insurance company officials.”
