Today, Denis Shapchits, head of the criminal investigation department of the Borisov District Department of Internal Affairs, spoke to the management of the FreBor Unitary Enterprise. The topic of "Current methods of cybercrime" was discussed at the meeting. Denis Shapchits explained the differences between phishing (note: a type of Internet fraud aimed at gaining access to confidential user data: logins and passwords) and vishing (note: "voice phishing"). The speaker also reminded people how to protect themselves from fraudsters. The main rules include: safe browsing of websites on the Internet, eliminating the possibility of compromising bank card details. In addition, you should not trust strangers who call you; do not lend money when a message with such a request comes on behalf of a familiar "user" on a social network. You should be extremely careful with Instagram stores, through which fraudsters often operate.
