Bahrain: Scammers disguise as health staff; seek vaccination details to hack phones

Many have reportedly fallen prey to a new scheme set by scammers in which they disguise themselves as Health Ministry staff seeking details on vaccination from the victims to offer a ministry-issued certificate. Upon giving the details, OTPs were sent to the victims and those who shared the passwords with scammers had their smartphones hacked and banking details stolen.

The Daily Tribune has been carrying many reports in the last few months about fraudsters targeting the online banking and financial transaction network in the Kingdom.
