Customers of one of New Zealand's largest banks have been targeted by a text message scam asking for personal details including their netcode.
ASB said it had been made aware of a SMS scam, known as smishing, where people had been sent a text message pretending to be from the bank.
The message contained a link and once clicked prompted the person to provide personal information and their netcode - a number used for verifying large transfers.
