Her headquarters ELAS draws the attention of citizens, as cases of attempted interception of personal data have recently been reported, through smishing
Specifically, through messages (sms), which are sent en masse to citizens, with the sender appearing to be a government organization, unknown perpetrators attempt to steal personal data by pretending to be pending tax matters (tax return).
Messages contain links (left-wing), which lead to websites where the user is asked to provide their data, such as sensitive private information, passwords, bank account or even bank card.
Then, once the recipient of the message fills in the requested information, the perpetrators use it either to gain unauthorized access to the victim's accounts, or to make unauthorized online transactions using the stolen card details.
What to do if you receive it
ELAS points out that these messages require great attention, as they appear extremely plausible, and the users who receive them are invited to:
- not to select the proposed links ( links ),
- do not reply to messages,
- not to register or send personal data and personal information, such as passwords, card numbers, etc., as in no case are these messages real.
