FRAUD - MOBILE PHONE MESSAGES REGARDING PAYMENT OF EXTRAJUDICIAL FINES
The Police continue to receive complaints from citizens who receive messages on their mobile phones, for alleged payment of extrajudicial fines. In light of these new complaints, the Police once again informs the public that they never communicate with citizens in this way or through any other communication platform, to call on citizens to pay any fines or for any other reason. As a measure of protection against such online frauds, the Police draws the attention of citizens, especially when they receive messages containing electronic links. It is recommended that the public avoid following such electronic links and never mention or register their personal and banking details on unknown websites.
