Rakuten Bank: Official SMS Senders & Numbers - Is That SMS Genuine?

Officially states it does not send SMS

Do they send SMS? (Official statements)

Rakuten Bank officially states it never sends emails or SMS for identity-verification purposes.

Officially published senders

No official sender (number or display name) list is published.

The bank states it sends no identity-verification SMS; no official SMS sender list is published.

Conversely, a message showing a listed name or number is NOT necessarily genuine: SMS sender displays can be spoofed. The safest approach is to avoid links in the message and check directly via the official app or a bookmarked official website.

Key points from official statements

Rakuten Bank sends no identity-verification emails/SMS; any such message in its name is not official.
Legitimate URLs are under rakuten-bank.co.jp (e.g. fes.rakuten-bank.co.jp, money.rakuten-bank.co.jp).
The bank recommends always logging in from a bookmarked official URL.

How to use this list correctly (disclaimer)

A sender not on this list is NOT necessarily a scam. Companies may add or change senders without notice, and legitimate SMS may arrive from numbers or names that are not officially published.

The content reflects what was published on the official pages as of each entry's verification date. Always check the linked official pages for the latest information.
