In line with industry-wide efforts to combat fraud and scam cases, there are 3 enhanced security features that we have introduced to safeguard your personal details. You may experience any one of these features if our security system detects unusual online transactions or suspicious activities in your account.

  • On-screen alerts to review and validate your online banking requests like fund transfers. This is to ensure you are transferring money to the right person.
  • Additional authentication via email One-Time Password (OTP) to prevent fraudsters from impersonating you to perform unauthorised transactions.
  • Rejection of transaction or log in request if we detect any suspicious online transaction or account activities If you experience this, kindly follow the instructions on your screen and contact UOB 24/7 Fraud Hotline immediately for assistance.

The on-screen alerts would provide you an opportunity to review and validate the payee details you have entered so that you are transferring funds to a known and trusted recipient. This minimise the likelihood of sending money to unintended person and you will also have the option to cancel any request that you would like to reconsider.

Email One-Time Password (OTP) is a security feature we added to prevent fraudsters from impersonating you to perform unauthorised transactions. If we detect an unusual online transaction, you will need to verify your identity via email OTP to authorise the transaction.

How email OTP authentication works:

Step 1 - You will receive an on-screen alert that your transaction requires additional authentication with email OTP.

Step 2 - Obtain the email OTP sent by UOB Malaysia to your registered email address with the bank and enter the OTP as requested on your screen.

Step 3 - The OTP is validated and your transaction is now complete.

Log in to UOB Personal Internet Banking (PIB), select “My Profile”, and update your email under “Personal Details”. This feature is currently not available on UOB TMRW app.

Email OTP authentication is required for selected transactions performed in UOB TMRW app and UOB Personal Internet Banking (PIB). If you receive an on-screen alert informing you that you do not have a registered email address with us, follow the instructions on your screen and call our 24-Hour Contact Centre at 03-2612 8121 for assistance.
