Trần Trung |

Recently, there has been a phenomenon of some bad guys taking advantage of information about localities merging and adjusting administrative boundaries to commit fraud, impersonating Electricity employees to ask customers to provide personal information to defraud and appropriate customers' assets.

Common scams are subjects impersonating electricity employees, calling customers with content related to the Power Company's implementation of unit mergers, asking customers to access the link provided by the subject to update electricity bill payment information at the new address after the Power Company merges units.

At the same time, it is required to provide personal information, request customers to text, install strange applications, make online calls with images through the application ( video-call) for easy guidance; the purpose of stealing personal information, bank accounts and then appropriating money in customers' bank accounts...
