No, it’s not a good idea to send your RIB during a live Twitch

With more than 230,000 meter subscribers, Nasdas is a very popular streamer on the Twitch platform. At the end of last year, he caused a vast crowd movement on the side of Bordeaux, with hundreds of young (and not young) who came to meet the videographer during his visit to a downtown shop. It must be said that on Snapchat, this same nasdas is followed by nearly 9 million subscribers.

Hundreds of Rib published by spectators of a live Twitch … But why?

This Sunday, February 2, live on Twitch, Nasdas offered his subscribers a deal that could not be more tempting. “” “I have just over 28,000 euros. I have to give 10,000 euros. How to do it?“Then said Nasdas, before asking his spectators to send a message with Rib, and explain why they need this sum. Quickly, several dozen banking information is shared on the live chat, in the hope of receiving a transfer (more or less important) from the videographer.

2 years ago, Nasdas also shared in a story the data of a credit card, on which was then 16,000 €, inviting users to use the latter for their personal purchases. Many sites quickly detected an abnormal activity, and some accounts had been blocked due to the use of a fraudulent means of payment.

Obviously, we know that neither the RIB, nor even IBAN, constitute any means of payment. With these two documents, we cannot therefore disburse anything without the authorization of the owner of the account, but nothing prevents malicious users from using this information (RIB and owner’s identity) to try to develop a direct debit authorization fraudulent.

Indeed, for many months already, some malicious players cheerfully exploit the bank data recovered from the web, in order to pass for a adviser from the victim’s bank, and evoking a suspicious operation on the account. “” “Sociations to the false banking advisor are the phenomenon of 2023 (+78% vs 2022)”Explained the cybermalveht platform in a report published last summer.

In fact, the crook calls the victim or encourages him to contact him and presents himself as an advisor or agent of the anti-fraud service of his bank. He often has a lot of information concerning her to credible his scam: identity, address, bank card contact details, even account number … distrust therefore.
