The SMS/email isn’t fraudulent; it’s about incorrect or outdated account information that must be corrected for Westpac, St George, Bank of SA and Bank of Melbourne. These institutions run a Know‑Your‑Customer (KYC) program, as shown on their official sites: https://www.westpac.com.au/aml-customer-idv/, https://www.stgeorge.com.au/privacy/know-your-customer, https://www.banksa.com.au/privacy/know-your-customer. I still advise not clicking any links or dialing numbers directly from the message; instead, search the numbers on the banks’ websites or visit a local branch, where they’ll give a timeframe to update the required details.
