The National Computer Incident Response Team of The Bahamas (CIRT-BS) is aware of fraudulent websites impersonating legitimate government services and attempting to collect fake traffic fine payments. These scams use social engineering tactics to create fear, urgency, and pressure individuals into submitting sensitive financial information online.
To help protect yourself:
✔️ Verify traffic fines only through official government channels
✔️ Carefully inspect website addresses before entering information
✔️ Avoid clicking suspicious links sent through email, SMS, or social media
✔️ Never provide card or banking information to unverified websites
✔️ Be cautious of urgent payment requests or threats of legal action
If you may have interacted with one of these fraudulent websites:
🔹 Contact your bank or card provider immediately
🔹 Monitor your accounts for suspicious activity
🔹 Report the incident as soon as possible
Stay alert. Stay cautious. Protect your information online. 🇧🇸
