"Dream - The Financial Services Authority (OJK) issued a warning to the public regarding the scam mode disguised as application files (APK) for the 2024 elections through the Whatsapp (WA) platform. This warning was issued by OJK in a post on their official Instagram account, which stated 'Beware of Scam Mode Disguised as APK Files Sent via WA'."
"APK File for the 2024 Election"
The following is the translation of the 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving the HTML tags: "Modus penipuan ini serupa seperti kiriman file APK undangan yang pernah dikeluhkan masyarakat beberapa waktu lalu. Namun kali ini menyangkut pemilu seperti dengan nama file, "PPS Pemilu 2024.apk"." The translation is as follows: "This scam method is similar to the APK invitation file that was previously complained about by the community some time ago. However, this time it concerns the election with a file name, "PPS Pemilu 2024.apk"."
"Dear OJK friends, the fraud schemes never end. This time, there is a new fraud scheme circulating disguised as a file similar to an invitation APK file," wrote OJK in its official Instagram account @ojkindonesia.
OJK said, fraud is carried out through the delivery of fake APK files containing dangerous applications. If the file is downloaded and then installed, it can retrieve personal data and drain the victim's account.
"The perpetrator sends a fake APK file that actually contains a dangerous application which, if downloaded and installed, can steal personal data and drain the victim's bank account."
"bebernya" in English is "some of it."
OJK reminds the public not to open files or links sent by unknown people.
"Be careful, friend! Never open files or links sent by unknown people," he explained. "Protect your personal data, safeguard your finances," he concluded.
Quoting Liputan6.com, previously OJK has provided three tactics to secure banking data from fraud with the mode of sending links, files, or invitations to download applications. - The first tactic is to not randomly click on links or files from unfamiliar individuals. - The second tactic is to not directly install the sent file. - The third tactic is to not grant access permission to unknown applications.
