Mahzooz, the popular weekly raffle draw in the UAE, has issued a warning to residents about fake websites that are using its name. These scammers are replicating the official Mahzooz site in an attempt to deceive participants. Such tactics are often employed by hackers and cybercriminals to carry out phishing attacks, where unsuspecting victims may provide their personal details, including bank account credentials, under the false impression of joining Mahzooz.
To protect participants, Mahzooz has shared some precautionary measures in an email advisory. These include:
- Only using the official Mahzooz website, www.mahzooz.ae, and avoiding engagement with any other websites claiming affiliation.
- Double-checking the website URL before clicking on any links.
- Never providing personal information, such as passwords, credit card details, or financial information, on any website other than www.mahzooz.ae.
- Reminding users that Mahzooz will never ask for sensitive information outside of the official website or official communication channels.
It is important for participants to remain vigilant and follow these guidelines to protect themselves from falling victim to online scams.
