According to RIA Novosti, the Prosecutor General recently announced that in 2020 the number of cybercrimes in Russia has increased.
Therefore, the journalists interviewed experts. They said that users should be wary if someone “went out” to them himself. “For example, a stranger calls you, sends you an SMS, an email or a link in a messenger. Whoever he introduces himself as an employee of a bank, police or shop, this is a reason to be wary, since he is the initiator of the contact and he needs something from you, ”the experts noted.
In addition, cybercriminals rush the victim. If you feel psychological discomfort, you should stop communicating.
The specialists recalled that a real bank employee will never ask for card details, PIN codes and passwords.
