Beware of fraudulent emails and suspicious websites: GAC
The General Administration of Customs (GAC) has issued an urgent warning to citizens and residents about fraudulent emails and suspicious websites impersonating the authority.
Customs officials stressed the importance of not clicking on unknown or suspicious links and not sharing personal or banking information with any unofficial entity.
They clarified that electronic customs transactions can only be completed through two official channels: the Sahl platform and the official website of the General Administration of Customs, reports Al-Jarida daily.
The authority explained that scam messages often contain alarming phrases such as: “Your shipment is being held by customs due to missing required documents. Please access the link immediately to avoid confiscation of the parcel.”
These messages typically include fake links designed to steal sensitive information.
Customs urged the public to remain vigilant and rely solely on official platforms to avoid falling victim to cyber fraud.
