Scamming card data: Ukrainians warned about fraudulent channel of the 'eSupport' program.


Fraudsters have appeared in the Telegram network, attempting to pose as official representatives of the state program 'eSupport'.
The scammers use automated user additions to their channel, where they post links to receive financial assistance through well-known banks. This was reported by the Telegram channel Brama.
Cybersecurity experts warn that the main goal of these fraudulent channels is to obtain personal and banking data of citizens. 'No organization will require you to present all banking details or one-Time passwords,' the specialists emphasize.
To avoid becoming a victim of fraud, it is essential to follow simple yet important rules. Do not click on suspicious links or enter your personal data on unfamiliar sites. It is important to verify the authenticity of channels by paying attention to the number of subscribers and activity.
If there are even the slightest suspicions, it is recommended to immediately block your bank card through a mobile application or contact the bank's hotline. It is also advisable to report the incident to cyber police and warn loved ones about possible fraud risks.
It is emphasized that such fraudulent attacks in the digital space can be prevented by being attentive and cautious.
