The UAE authorities have warned residents about fake messages carrying government and police logos.
Warning residents of suspicious messages which may bear government logos, the Ministry of Interior said in a tweet that “digital scammers try to defraud victims by making the receiver believe that the message is from a governmental organization. These suspicious messages often contain a link or a one time password (OTP).”
Authorities have said that messages from governmental organizations will be sent from official numbers with the Ministry urging residents to report such messages for appropriate action.
