Algeria Post warns its customers against online fraud risks.

Algeria Post has recently issued a warning to its customers, urging them to be cautious when receiving short messages that appear to come from the company.

These messages could be phishing attempts aiming to deceive recipients into revealing personal or financial information.

The company emphasizes the importance of verifying the authenticity of online financial transactions.

It recommends using the ECCP application to check the new balance and confirm the legitimacy of transactions, a crucial step in protecting oneself against fraud and identity theft.

Algeria Post reminds its customers that vigilance is their best defense against online scams.

By systematically checking transactions and being wary of suspicious messages, customers can help secure their finances and personal information.

Algeria Post encourages caution in the face of increasing phishing attempts.

It should be noted that on March 27, 2024, Algeria Post issued an urgent statement, urging its customers to exercise extreme caution with dubious links shared on social networks, especially via WhatsApp.

The company warns that fraudsters pretending to be Algeria Post are actively spreading deceptive links. They claim to offer enticing rewards through non-existent games and contests.

In the wake of a worrying increase in phishing campaigns, Algeria Post renews its call for vigilance.

This warning comes at a time of growing concern due to the escalation of cyber attacks and online scams.

Recently, Naftal, another major Algerian company, also warned its customers about similar frauds, highlighting a common threat in the current digital landscape.
