A spokesman for the Commerce and Economic Development Bureau (CEDB) today (June 13) appealed to members of the public to stay alert to fraudulent telephone calls purported to be made by the bureau.
The spokesman said the bureau received reports from members of the public today that they have received calls, falsely claimed to be made by CEDB, asking them to visit the CEDB's office for handling refund matters in connection with online shopping.
The spokesman stressed that CEDB has no connection with the fraudulent calls. Members of the public are reminded not to disclose any personal information to unidentified phone calls. They may report cases of suspected phone scam to the Police.
