Iraq: How to Report Bank Fraud

If money left your account without your permission, or you were tricked into sending it, contact your bank or payment provider straight away. The faster they hear from you, the better the chance of stopping or recovering the money. Below are the official fraud and card lines for 6 providers in Iraq.

Do this first

  1. Call your bank’s fraud or card line now. Use a number from this page, the back of your card, or your bank’s official app. Never use a number from a text, an email, a caller or a search ad.
  2. Block your card or freeze your account in the app if you can, and change your online banking password.
  3. Ask the bank for a reference number, and write down the time you reported it.
  4. Report it to the police as well: see who handles cybercrime in Iraq.
  5. Keep everything: messages, call logs, screenshots and transaction IDs. Your bank will never ask for your PIN, password or a one-time code.

Know this about Iraq

  • Most Iraqi banks publish no dedicated fraud line: call your bank's call centre, or the number on the back of your card, straight away.
  • We could not verify contact numbers for Rafidain Bank or ZainCash. Use only the number printed on your card or shown in the official app.
  • We found no official rule that guarantees a refund for unauthorised transfers in Iraq, so report the loss to your bank as fast as you can.

Report it to the police too
