Safety tips

Practical advice to protect yourself from unwanted and suspicious calls.

Do not answer unknown numbers

Do not answer calls from unknown numbers. Scammers may use different numbers or hide their real number with spoofing. Spam calls via instant messaging are also becoming more common. It is safer not to take the risk and not answer these calls.
Official organizations will not ask for details by phone

Remember that official organizations such as banks or government services will never ask for your personal details by phone. If a call requests this kind of information, it is a clear sign it may be suspicious.
You have the right to refuse

You have every right to refuse to provide any information. If something worries you or raises doubts, it is better to end the conversation and hang up.
Report unwanted calls

Report unwanted calls to specialized services or the police. The more people know about scam methods, the less chance scammers have of succeeding. Help protect yourself and others from phone fraud.
Use apps to block and filter calls

Use apps to block and filter unwanted calls. They help you avoid contact with scammers and save time.
