People need to be vigilant against this new and sophisticated scam. |
Fraudsters have used many sophisticated tricks to appropriate assets such as: Impersonating electricity employees to call people to request to update electricity payment information due to "adjusting boundaries"; Impersonating tax authorities to request to send ID cards, registration certificates to "update address"; Impersonating social insurance agencies, police, People's Committees, using the excuse of incorrect ID card information, requesting to send photos or access links with fake interfaces; Impersonating state agencies to invite sponsorship for conferences on merging provinces, wards/communes; calling to entice businesses to contribute gifts... The subjects also send links to install fake applications to lure people to grant control rights to their phones, thereby appropriating bank accounts.
People can easily identify this form of fraud through the following signs: Subjects requesting personal information; Web interface, fake application but strange domain name or very similar to official agency; Calling from strange numbers, creating a sense of urgency, coercion; Suggesting and instructing people to do it themselves on their personal mobile phones so as not to have to go directly to the authorities; Requesting to install applications from unofficial sources, enabling high access rights.
Authorities recommend that people should be vigilant against the above scams, absolutely do not share OTP codes, passwords, and limit saving banking information on the phone. At the same time, note to only install applications from App Store/CH Play; carefully check the information, domain name, interface of the website or application and use biometric security to log in to the bank.
When suspecting or detecting fraud, people need to immediately report to relevant agencies or local police for support.
