Scam Patterns
- Online Share-Trading Scam. Cyber criminals deceive individuals through online investment platforms and WhatsApp groups promising high stock returns, initially letting them withdraw small profits to build trust. Once large amounts are invested, withdrawals are blocked and victims suffer massive financial losses. Tip: Never invest money through unverified online trading platforms or social media groups promising guaranteed returns.
- Taxi Overcharging Scam. Some taxi drivers fail to use the official meter and attempt to overcharge passengers for fares. Passengers must remain vigilant about standard meter usage. Tip: Always insist that the driver uses the meter or book rides through verified transport methods.
Digital Security
- Use a VPN on public Wi-Fi.
- Enable 2FA on email, banking, and travel accounts.
- Back up document scans to a private cloud and a paper copy stored separately.
- Avoid unknown USB ports and charging stations.
- Keep automatic OS updates on; enable remote-wipe on your phone.
Money Safety
- Carry a backup payment card stored separately from your wallet.
- Use bank-lobby ATMs in daylight; cover the keypad.
- Keep a small amount of local cash for emergencies.
- Watch for skimmers and shoulder-surfers around ATMs and payment terminals.
- Use card-tap for transit and payments where possible to limit card-present exposure.
