The Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Republic of Uzbekistan has issued another warning about the sharp increase in telephone fraud cases. These scams are mainly aimed at stealing funds from citizens' bank cards.
Criminals use highly organized and sophisticated deception methods. They introduce themselves as bank employees, law enforcement officers, telecommunications operators, automated telephone station employees, or representatives of large online marketplaces.
Mainly, the criminals speak in Russian and send fake documents and service IDs via messengers to inspire trust. The Ministry of Internal Affairs reminds the following: - Bank and government employees never ask for PIN codes, passwords, or SMS codes.
- Do not open unknown files, links, or APK applications, even if they come from people you know. - Do not answer audio or video calls from unknown accounts.
- If you have the slightest suspicion, stop the conversation and call the organization's official phone number. - If you have disclosed your personal information or noticed suspicious transactions, immediately block your card and contact the internal affairs authorities.
