The police reminds that there are no “safe accounts”, and real government employees never ask to dictate the code from the message. If you require such data - immediately hang up and check the information by official numbers.

Fraudsters came up with a new scheme: pensioners are promised payments from the FSZN by October 1

Over the past week, 35 cybercrimes were recorded in the Mogilev region - trusting citizens lost about 90 thousand rubles. This was reported to the police.

Thanks to timely prevention, it was possible to save more than 11 thousand rubles of a resident of Bobruisk, who was already under the influence of intruders.

Scammers continue to use proven schemes, playing on fear:

  1. 1.call on behalf of banks, police or tax authorities;
  2. 2.threaten to confiscate allegedly “undeclared” money;
  3. 3.they want to transfer their savings to a safe account.

On the eve of the Day of the Elderly Person (October 1), a surge of calls on behalf of the FSZN is expected. Fraudsters can promise pensioners holiday payments and under this pretext to lure personal data or codes from SMS.

The police reminds that there are no “safe accounts”, and real government employees never ask to dictate the code from the message. If you require such data - immediately hang up and check the information by official numbers.
