The Press Information Bureau warned of a fake message claiming SBI YONO accounts will be blocked without an Aadhaar update. Users are asked to download an APK file, which is a phishing attempt to steal banking data. SBI clarified it never asks customers to install apps via links and urged users to avoid sharing sensitive information.
The Press Information Bureau (PIB) has flagged a fake message circulating on social media that claims State Bank of India’s (SBI) YONO app accounts will be blocked if users do not update their Aadhaar details immediately.
The purported message instructs recipients to download an APK file titled “SBI KYC AADHAR UPDATE” and install it to avoid disruption of services.
The warning, which appears to be a phishing attempt, is designed to mislead account holders into sharing sensitive banking and personal information.
PIB Fact Check clarified that such messages are fraudulent and not issued by the SBI. The official X handle of SBI has also confirmed that the bank does not require customers to download APK files for Aadhaar updates.
