ICICI limit enhancement link

Hello everyone.

I today got an SMS from ICICI bank with a link that would supposedly enable me to increase credit limit on my Amazon pay credit card.

What's weird to me is the sms channel seems legitimate because i recieve OTPs for online transactions.

Is this something that's normal and do people recieve such SMS or something that frauds have found a way to imitate the SMS sender name as well.


The question you may ask why am i hung up on it. You'd get limit increase automatically(without any links or whatsoever). I own 3 more cards HDFC Millennia, AMEX Smartearn and idfc millennia with limits 2.26L 2.35L and 1.2L respectively. Only this is the card with limit of 80000 (now 90000) which i use more than the other cards. But still stuck with substantially lower limit on it.



Would appreciate some tips on getting equivalent limit to other cards if any.

Just keep the card in a drawer for 2 to 3 months and don't use it and see the magic
