  2. Real-time alerts trigger customers to check before sending money.

Summarized Story:

National Australia Bank (NAB) has successfully helped customers abandon $48.5 million worth of suspect payments over the past two months by issuing real-time scam warnings. These alerts notify customers when a payment appears unusual or suspicious, encouraging them to pause and verify before proceeding.

The initiative has been particularly effective during high-transaction periods like December and November, with $26 million and $22.5 million in payments abandoned respectively. NAB’s proactive measures, including removing links from text messages and joining an intelligence-sharing network, aim to combat the rising scam attempts.
