Скачать или смотреть Cyber crime | Bank Fraud | Protect Yourself from Scams

a. Scams target everyone

Scammers target people of all backgrounds, ages and income levels across Pakistan.

Scammers create believable stories that may convince you to give them more money or personal details.

b. Protect yourself

Do not open suspicious texts, or click on links or attachments in SMS – ignore and report.
Beware of any requests for your details or money. Never send money or give ATM or PIN details, online account details or copies of personal documents to anyone you don’t know or trust.
You should warn your friends and family about scams.
If you are not sure that you're being scammed, stop sending money. Scammers will keep asking for more money until you stop.
If you have sent money or shared your banking details with a scammer, contact your bank & police immediately. They may be able to stop a transaction, or close your account if the scammer has your account details.


c. Report scams to the authorities

First, report the scam number to your service provider (Jazz, Zong, Telenor, Ufone & PTCL) for blocking of the suspected number.
If no response is received from service provider, you can also report the number to PTA for blocking by dialing 0800-55055 or visit https://complaint.pta.gov.pk/Register...
PTA will block such number and mobile device IMEI. Repeat offences from the same person (using a different number) will result in blacklisting of such CNICs for issuance of new SIMs/connection
If a financial/banking fraud has occurred, contact State Bank of Pakistan: [email protected]
For further investigation, contact FIA helpline: 051 9106384
