Abstract

An alarm system and method include setting an alarm password corresponding to the bank account and setting a restricted amount of the bank account, acquiring account information of the bank account if the alarm password is received, and sending the alarm message including the account information to a receiving device of one or more emergency dispatchers. The alarm system and method further include displaying the restricted amount on an account interface provided by a bank server if the account balance is greater than the restricted amount, or displaying the account balance on the account interface if the account balance is less than the restricted amount.

Claims

1. A bank alarm method for securing bank accounts, the method comprising:

setting an alarm password corresponding to a bank account of a bank, and setting a restricted amount of money in the bank account;

receiving information of the bank account and an input password in response to receiving user input;

determining if the input password is the alarm password;

generating an alarm message that is populated with the account information, and sending the alarm message to a receiving device of one or more emergency dispatchers;

logging into the bank account;

comparing an account balance of the bank account with the restricted amount, and determining if the account balance is greater than the restricted amount;

displaying the restricted amount on an account interface provided by a bank server of the bank if the account balance is greater than the restricted amount;

or

displaying the account balance on the account interface if the account balance is less than the restricted amount.

2. The method according to claim 1, further comprising:

setting restricted actions on the bank account; and

setting a dialog message to display that a restricted action is denied in response to receive an instruction of the restricted action.

3. The method according to claim 2, further comprising:

receiving an instruction of a current action on the bank account, and determining if the current action is one of the restricted actions;

displaying the dialog message on the account interface to prompt that the current action is denied if the current action is one of the restricted actions;

or allowing the current action if the current action is not one of the restricted actions.

4. The method according to claim 1, further comprising:

recording all actions applied to the bank account;

generating an action log comprising the recorded actions; and

storing the action log into a storage system of the bank server.

5. The method according to claim 1, further comprising:
