One click can be enough to put your information at risk.

Phishing messages are designed to look genuine. They may appear to come from a bank, delivery service, workplace, government organisation or someone you know.

Before clicking a link:

* Check the sender — an unfamiliar or suspicious address is a red flag.
* Check the link — don't click simply because the message looks official.
* Watch for urgency — messages demanding immediate action deserve extra caution.
* Don't enter sensitive information through a link received unexpectedly.
* When in doubt, visit the organisation's official website directly rather than using the link in the message.

Don't be quick to click. Take a moment to check.

One pause can protect your data, your identity and your money.

Good practices should outlive campaigns.

Under , the Ministry of Minority Affairs is reinforcing responsible practices that contribute to cleaner workspaces, better organisation and more efficient use of resources.

Responsible e-waste disposal is an important part of this effort. Identifying obsolete electronic items, ensuring their appropriate disposal and creating awareness around responsible e-waste management can help build cleaner and more sustainable workplaces.

The goal is not just to act during a campaign, but to make responsible practices a part of everyday functioning.

One download can put your data at risk.

Fraudsters may circulate fake mobile apps through messages, social media, websites or links, often promising rewards, services, updates or urgent solutions.

These apps can be designed to steal personal information, banking credentials or other sensitive data.

Before installing an app:

*Download only from trusted, official app stores or verified sources.

* Check the developer and app details before installing.

* Be cautious of APK files received through messages, emails or unknown websites.

* Review app permissions. An app asking for access unrelated to its purpose should raise a red flag.

* Never install an app because someone pressures you to do so urgently.

Pause. Check the source. Think before you install.

Stay alert. Stay cyber safe.

A “digital arrest” is not a legal process. It is a scam.

Fraudsters may impersonate police officers or other law-enforcement agencies, accuse you of being involved in a crime and threaten arrest over a video or phone call. They may then pressure you to transfer money or share sensitive information.

Remember:

🔹 No genuine law-enforcement agency conducts an arrest through a video call.
🔹 Do not transfer money to “clear” an investigation or avoid arrest.
🔹 Never share OTPs, passwords, PINs or banking details.
🔹 Stay calm and independently verify the caller’s identity.
🔹 If you are targeted, report the fraud immediately by calling 1930 or through the National Cyber Crime Reporting Portal.

Fear is their weapon. Awareness is your defence.

Don’t panic. Don’t pay. Verify. Report.
