Dubai: The Dubai toll-gate operator Salik has issued a strong warning to investors and
customers not to fall for scams coming their way as clone website or emails sent
from fraudulent sources.
Investors should also be on guard against scams filtered through their social media
feeds, that 'falsely carry salik's name and label'.
"Salik has observed a surge in phishing messages circulating on various social media
and online platforms," said the company in a statement. "Some of these fraudulent
messages falsely claim to offer investment opportunities in Salik stocks, promising
customers a chance to generate a steady income, while some others provide fake links
or websites to 'recharge' a Salik account or 'buy' tag."
Customers must at all times ensure a secure connection while using URLs beginning
with 'https:// instead of http://' as the former is considered secure'.
Salik has also warned customers to avoid clicking on 'suspicious' links and pop-up ads
as it can redirect customers to some other malicious websites and steal one’s personal
information.
At all times, investors and customers must check the official Salik website and
communication channels for the most recent security upgrades, as well as verify the
legitimacy of messages received online that claim to be from it.
