National Bank of Egypt’s hacking hilarity

Created by Tarek Nour Advertising and directed by Hamba and Doss through Bigfoot Films, these three droll spots for National Bank of Egypt outline the different ways cyber criminals can get at you if you have sloppy online habits.

In Office, a distracted carrot-chomping chump comes a cropper when he is fooled by a fake requests to keep his online banking password saved on his work computer. 

With mock nature documentary commentary, Café follows a ‘flock’ of chirruping students seeking free wi-fi. As they log onto their bank accounts via insecure connections, they each fall prey to internet evildoers. 

In Gramps, an adorable oldster is lured by phone phishers grabbing his data – and his savings – via a dodgy URL. While all are regrettable incidents, the smartly scripted voiceover and fun details make for an amusing trilogy.
