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.

Yes this came to me after the same event.. I recently got a limit enhancement automatically..
I also got the same message today.
But I have already enchanced it 15 days ago from imobile app and it's showing the same limit.

also funny enough @hetshah , yesterday you opened the link i had in my screenshot.. this morning i got a couple of OTP's meant for "free limit increase in your ICICI Bank Credit Card XXXXXX T&Cs."
The last 4 digits of card number are correct....🫠
