Clients who receive many SMS or long calls may face a transfer block for two days.
The measure will affect bank clients who purchase this data from operators.
Russian banks will block money transfers for two days from July 25, writes RBC .
The ban will come into effect if operators receive information about suspicious calls and an increase in the number of messages from the new address.
Receiving long calls or SMS messages by a client before making a transaction may indicate an attempt by fraudsters to steal money.
Such measures will not be mandatory for all banks. They will affect credit institutions that have concluded agreements with mobile operators for data exchange.
In case of prolonged telephone activity of the bank and receipt of atypical SMS messages from new numbers, banks will suspend money transfers for several days.
