Fake ICICI Lombard General Insurance messages and links
Texts quoting ICICI Lombard talk of cancelled car cover, bonus credits and garage approvals. Know what is false and how to check your policy.
A general insurer offering motor, health, travel, home and commercial cover, with a mobile app used for renewals, claim intimation and roadside help. Because many people use it, scammers pretend to be ICICI Lombard General Insurance in SMS, WhatsApp and email messages. This page lists the lies they usually tell and how to check before you act.
Lines used in fake ICICI Lombard General Insurance messages
- ICICI Lombard car policy cancelled due to mismatch, verify RC by uploading a photo
- ICICI Lombard no-claim bonus credited, claim through this short link
- ICICI Lombard cashless garage approval pending, send OTP to authorise repair
- ICICI Lombard health policy renewal point reward expires, redeem on this page
How to verify it yourself
Check the vehicle or health policy in the official ICICI Lombard app, or on the company website that you type yourself. Repair approvals and roadside requests are raised through that app or the helpline number printed on your policy schedule. Scanning a QR code is for paying someone, never for receiving a bonus, so refuse any such request. Show your policy and vehicle papers only on the insurer's own platform and never to a stranger on a video call.
Quick checklist
- Do not tap links or call numbers inside the message.
- Open the official app, or type the official website yourself, and look for the same notice.
- Never share an OTP, PIN, CVV or password with anyone, including "staff".
- If money moved, call 1930 and your bank at once.
