WARNING: Complacency is not an option! Don’t let yourself become the next victim of phone scams.
Unfortunately, there has been a growing number of students falling prey to these scams, resulting in significant financial losses and severe mental distress. According to the Hong Kong Police, scammers are posing as staff members of official agencies, providing real phone numbers and websites, and even using accurate personal information to gain trust.
DON’TS & DOS: Scam attempts can take many forms, including cyber romance scams, investment fraud, religious fraud, online employment traps, online shopping scams, and more. Scammers are constantly changing their tactics, so it’s important to stay vigilant and protect yourself. Never provide personal information such as passport/ identity card numbers, passwords, or bank account numbers to strangers over email or phone.
If you receive a call from an unknown number claiming to be from a bureau or large institution, it’s best to ignore it. You can also use the website https://cyberdefender.hk/en-us/ to check the risk level of unknown phone numbers. If you suspect a fraudulent call, report it directly to the Police by calling the 24-hour consultation hotline at 18222.
For more information, please visit the official Hong Kong Police website at https://www.adcc.gov.hk/. For Chinese Mainland students, you can also follow the Xiaohongshu account “Western Police District” for useful advice.
We urge everyone to remain vigilant against scams, and CEDARS is always here to help all students.
警告：不要讓自己成為電話詐騙的下一個受害者！
不幸的是，越來越多的學生成為這些騙局的犧牲品，造成了巨大的經濟損失和嚴重的精神痛苦。香港警方表示，詐騙者冒充官方機構工作人員，提供真實電話號碼和網址，甚至使用準確的個人資料獲取信任。
DON’TS & DOS：詐騙可以採取多種形式，包括網絡浪漫詐騙、投資詐騙、宗教詐騙、在線就業陷阱、在線購物詐騙等。詐騙者不斷改變他們的策略，因此保持警惕並保護自己很重要。切勿通過電子郵件或電話向陌生人提供護照/身份證號碼、密碼或銀行帳號等個人信息。
當你接到自稱是某局或某大型機構的陌生來電時，最好的做法是選擇直接忽視。也可進入網站 https://cyberdefender.hk/，並輸入陌生來電者的電話號碼，該網站會顯示該號碼的風險等級。若仍無法確定是否為詐騙電話，請直接向警方報案，致電 18222 (24小時諮詢熱線)與警方聯繫。
若想了解更多信息，也可訪問警方的官網：https://www.adcc.gov.hk/zh-hk/home.html。
