Reporting Fraud or Unauthorized Transactions
If you notice suspicious activity on your account:
1. Review your transaction history immediately.
2. Report it right away via zenithdirect@zenithbank.com or `0201-278-7000` — don't wait.
Failed ATM withdrawal (debited but no cash dispensed) or failed POS transaction (debited, no reversal after 24 hours): Zenith Bank's official site provides dedicated online forms for both scenarios — fill these out directly on zenithbank.com, or submit the form at your nearest branch instead.
Lost, damaged, or stolen card: Contact customer care immediately through any of the channels above to have it blocked.
Important Scam Warning (From Zenith Bank's Official Site)
Zenith Bank explicitly warns that fraudsters impersonating bank staff have sent scam emails claiming customers have "huge US Dollar deposits" awaiting them — this is always fake. The bank confirms:
- -`www.zenithbank.com` is the only authentic Zenith Bank website.
- - Several fictitious lookalike websites exist, run by scammers impersonating Zenith staff or directors.
- - Zenith Bank will never ask for your PIN, OTP, password, or full card details via email, call, or WhatsApp.
If you receive a suspicious message claiming to be from Zenith Bank, verify it directly by calling `0700ZENITHBANK` rather than responding to the message itself.
