We advise all customers to remain cautious and informed about common online and email frauds. Being aware of warning signs can help you avoid potential scams. The most frequent email-based frauds fall into two categories: phishing and spoofing. In both cases, the sender’s email address is manipulated to appear as though it originates from a legitimate vehicle number plate.
Phishing is a fraudulent attempt to obtain your personal or sensitive information such as login credentials, vehicle details, or payment information. These attempts are commonly made through emails or messages that contain malicious links redirecting you to fake websites designed to capture your data. Some phishing emails may also prompt users to download harmful software. Please note that our vehicle number plate services will never ask you to download any software or share confidential information via email. For more information on phishing and how to protect yourself.
Spoofing involves fraudulent emails or messages that impersonate an official vehicle number plate authority or service provider. These messages may include false job offers, payment requests, or instructions to perform unauthorized transactions. Such emails often lack proper contact details or provide incorrect office addresses, phone numbers, or email IDs. Always verify the authenticity of any communication before responding or sharing personal information.
