In October 2025, a special button will appear in financial applications of banks - a tool for notifying the security service of credit institutions and law enforcement agencies about possible actions of fraudsters or suspicious calls. This was announced by the head of the Central Bank, Elvira Nabiullina, at the "Cybersecurity" forum in Yekaterinburg.
In the same mobile application, a person will be able to respond to the bank's request whether the transaction is fraudulent.
According to her, the requirement will concern systemically important banks through which the main flow of payments passes. Participants of the "Cybersecurity" forum supported such a fight against fraudsters. Experts noted the importance of this initiative, as the financial literacy of Russians remains at a low level.
Also, the head of the Central Bank stated that some banks distorted fraud statistics. They did not report information about the deception of clients. Nabiullina said that credit organizations stated that "a person, even under the influence of deception, did transfer" the money himself. The head of the Central Bank added that some banks were punished for such actions, without specifying which organizations were involved.
