The Council stressed the importance of not engaging with such messages or clicking on any embedded links, urging users to verify the source of messages and refrain from sharing any personal or financial information under any circumstances.
It also called on members of the public who encounter such scam attempts to report them immediately to the relevant police authorities, providing all available details and evidence, in order to strengthen cyber security efforts and protect the community from online fraud.
