Dozens Of Dubai Residents Received Fake Emails From DEWA For Bill Payment
The scams in the country are becoming a lot more elaborate and advanced. They’re almost undetectable nowadays with emails using official logos and minimal grammatical and spelling mistakes. Residents are noticing that scammers are using major company names to scam like DEWA!
In fact, within the past couple of days, dozens of Dubai residents received fake emails from DEWA for bill payment
While the email may look authentic, you can figure out if it’s a scam by looking at the sender’s email address
This batch of emails was sent at approximately the same time, used the same code and requested the same amount (AED534.54).
Be sure to check the sender’s email to assess the authenticity of the email! Most likely you’ll see that the sender’s email is nothing related to DEWA at all. The recent fake emails were sent by team@noxturnal.com and sales2@obilet.com.
#SCAMALERT: Scammers are impersonating the Dubai Electricity and Water Authority (DEWA). They ask you to update your account details.
⚠️Do not interact with these emails
⚠️ Always check the email ID, spelling and other minor details to detect a scam.#lovindubai pic.twitter.com/IyoSw82W5F— Lovin Dubai | لوڤن دبي (@lovindubai) July 29, 2023
