Fake HDFC Bank messages: how to tell

Scammers copy HDFC Bank's name in SMS, WhatsApp messages, calls and links. Compare anything you receive with the official details below.

Official web addresses

hdfcbank.com
hdfc.com
hdfcbank.net
hdfclife.com
hdfcergo.com

A link that uses "HDFC Bank" but ends in a different address is a warning sign. Type the address yourself instead of tapping.

Known SMS sender names

XX-HDFCBK, XX-HDFCBN, XX-HDFCCC

Real messages come from short sender names like these, not from an ordinary 10-digit mobile number. This list may be incomplete; check HDFC Bank's own website.

Warning signs

Asks for OTP, PIN, CVV or password — HDFC Bank never asks for these.
Threatens account block, KYC expiry or a fine "today".
Sends a link or an .apk app file to install.
Offers reward points, a refund or a prize you didn't expect.
