A representative of the Ministry of Interior in the Cybercrime Department, Lieutenant Colonel Ammar Al-Sarraf, stated: “We always support campaigns through which we can reach the largest segment of clients in Kuwait to educate them on their rights. The objectives of this cooperation are to educate all clients by shooting video clips that will be posted on social media channels, and among the most prominent messages that included this cooperation are fraudulent bank messages, dealing with unlicensed financial institutions, hacking the banking application, suspicious transactions and the speed of reporting them, electronic withdrawals, changing the password of bank cards, keeping banking information in safe places, not the caller and scam investments in stocks.

The campaign is not limited to electronic fraud, but also sheds light on the rights of bank clients in the areas of personal finance, whether client or housing finance, the procedure of submitting complaints about banking services, various bank cards, ways to avoid exposure to fraud, awareness of the risks that clients may be exposed to, high-risk investments and awareness of the rights of disabled clients. It also deals with tips related to cybersecurity and protecting bank accounts, as well as explaining the procedure of filing complaints, while defining the duties of the banking sector and its role in stimulating and developing the economy.

Warba Bank succeeded, after a short period of its founding, in establishing its position in the banking sector, and occupied a leading position in the field of Islamic digital banking services for individuals, as it is considered the most local bank with the number of shareholders base from members of society, which makes it the closest bank to them by providing the best banking services. It became up to the aspirations of the Kuwaiti society and deservedly earned their trust in a short period.
