The National Cyber Directorate informs the public that there have been recent instances of imitation attempts of government websites for phishing purposes, aimed at stealing personal information of citizens. These imitating websites appear similar to official government sites, and the website addresses resemble the genuine ones but are not identical.
Phishing scams utilize social engineering and are carried out through the sending of deceptive email messages or via social networking platforms. At times, malicious actors will employ phishing in order to gain unauthorized access to sensitive information such as bank account details, credit information, and passwords.
