Scammers Target Pensions, Bank Accounts Via Phone Codes

Scammers are using tactics such as requesting policy replacements, prompting mobile app downloads to gain phone access, and arranging medical examinations that lead to recommendations for expensive, imported treatments requiring loans. They also make calls impersonating pension fund representatives. Scammers are reportedly using phone calls to trick individuals into revealing codes, enabling them to withdraw money from credit accounts, particularly targeting pensions and government services.
