ICBC issues OpenClaw risk warning, financial institutions remain cautious about AI proxy tools

Gate News reports that on March 10, financial institutions remain cautious about AI proxy tools like OpenClaw. Several interviewees pointed out that banks handle large amounts of customer information and transaction data, requiring high security. If AI proxies gain excessive permissions or are improperly configured, it could lead to data leaks or system risks. An IT professional from a joint-stock bank stated that the volume and sensitivity of banking data far exceed those of ordinary users. Once vulnerabilities occur, the impact can be much greater. Industrial and Commercial Bank of China issued a risk warning on March 10 regarding OpenClaw, alerting to scam traps, cautious authorization risks, and investment fraud prevention. Specific recommendations include: not freely opening sensitive permissions such as contacts, photo albums, or folders; not entering ID numbers, bank card numbers, or payment passwords into unknown software; and being wary of phrases like “AI stock trading,” “guaranteed profit,” or “high returns with low risk.” For transactions, recharges, or investments, always verify carefully and do not trust blindly.
