At Dubai Islamic Bank (DIB), it is our constant endeavour to provide you with secure banking solutions. We would, thus, advise you not to respond to any email asking you to provide personal banking data. Any such request is a Phishing email intended to steal sensitive information like PINs, usernames and passwords from you. Dubai Islamic Bank will never ask you to provide any personal information over email.
Some tips that will help protect you against potential scams:

KEEP YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION CONFIDENTIAL
Do not reply to any email asking you for any personal details such as your Account Number, Credit Card Number, password, PIN etc.
WHAT YOU SEE IS NOT ALWAYS TRUE
Do pay attention to the following:
- Sender’s email address is not an indication of authenticity, as it can be easily altered to reflect any desired address.
- In order to verify the legitimacy of a link in an email, move your mouse over the link and it will display the contents of the link. If the contents do not match DIB's address ( https://online.dib.ae), then the site is not legitimate.
- Avoid using simple passwords or numbers associated with personal dates as they can easily be guessed by hackers
- Do not share your password or personal identification number (PIN) with anyone or leave them written down anywhere
- Regularly change your password to ensure you remain secured
- Always be cautious when entering your PIN at an ATM or POS Terminal
- Keep your cheque book stored away in a safe place
