The police remind that, as before, the most common deception scheme is offers to extend the validity of a SIM card and communication service contracts. Also, attackers often offer citizens protection from allegedly unauthorized debiting of money from an account.
The Interior Ministry once again urges citizens to be vigilant and reminds them not to disclose to unauthorized persons their bank card details, PIN codes and one-time passwords to confirm transactions. And in the case when unknown people call and introduce themselves as employees of the bank or the police, end the conversation, and then clarify the information on the official numbers of the organizations.
