NCCIA Warns Pakistanis Against Rs. 13,000 Iqbal Day Prize Scam

The National Cyber Crime Investigation Agency (NCCIA) has issued a warning to Pakistanis regarding a fraudulent scheme claiming that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is offering a Rs. 13,000 cash prize to citizens in connection with Iqbal Day on November 9. The message circulating on social media asks recipients to click on a link to claim the reward, but the NCCIA has labeled it as a scam.

Scammers are reportedly using these messages to steal personal and financial information, and the NCCIA urges citizens not to click on unverified links or share personal details or banking information through suspicious websites and links. The agency advises verifying announcements about cash prizes through official government channels before taking any action and cautions against messages promising financial benefits in exchange for clicking links or providing sensitive information.
