Beware of fraudulent SMS

Macao Post and Telecommunications Bureau has recently received reports from citizens about fraudulent text messages claiming to be from the Bureau, regarding abnormalities in their mail or packages delivery. Those messages induced them to enter into a fake website and provide their personal and credit card information. The Post and Telecommunications Bureau clarifies that it will not request citizens’ personal or credit card information through SMS and urges citizens to remain vigilant and always enhance their awareness of fraud prevention.

If citizens suspect that they have encountered a scam, they can call the Macao Judiciary Police Anti-Fraud Inquiry Hotline at 8800 7777 or the emergency hotline at 993 for assistance.
