New scam with messages impersonating the Cyprus Post Office

The Department of Postal Services advises the public that recently there have been increased reports of deceptive phishing messages being sent to mobile phone users, specifically regarding the correction of address information.

Phishing is an act of deceiving internet users, in which the sender impersonates a trusted entity, organization or person who invites the recipient of the message to follow the instructions given to them.

These instructions may ask the recipient to follow an electronic link or provide their data, such as sensitive private information, passwords, identity or passport information, bank account number, bank card number, etc.

Citizens are urged to be especially careful, no matter how plausible the sender or the messages they receive may seem, so that they do not fall victim to fraudsters who act in this way.

Finally, please note that payments do not go to JCCSmart's online payment platform, but to another email address.
