Unauthorised transactions were carried out by Yes Bank's Multi-Currency Prepaid Forex Card, which was issued in partnership with BookMyForex.

These unauthorised transactions were attempted on specific BIN numbers only and these fraudulent transactions were carried out on 15 merchants that are based out of a Latin American country, in the early hours of February 24, 2026, the bank had said.

Due to the bank's monitoring and control mechanisms, 688 unauthorized transaction attempts were declined, which led to the safeguarding of approximately USD 100,000.
