Phone scams continue in Oman despite warnings. In addition to frauds using SMS and WhatsApp messages, frauds continue by calling directly on the phone, obtaining information and embezzling money. The number of victims is increasing because the victims of scams do not speak up or complain.
Fake calls and messages are still being received in the name of banks and telephone companies. The phone call said that money has been received in the draw as part of the prize scheme and that the bank details should be provided to transfer the amount. Many people, including foreigners, have lost thousands of Rials in various incidents. Many people, including Malayalis, are getting these kinds of fake messages and phone calls every day.
Those who trust fake phone calls and messages and give information lose money in no time. If you are convinced that you have been scammed, you should first inform the bank and freeze or cancel your account and credit card. Or contact the branch directly to update the information. The Royal Oman Police is also warning once morest fake phone calls.
