Videos have been circulating online of residents warning each other about fraudsters pretending to be officials from the Ministry of Interior<\/h2>\n

These scammers are going door-to-door asking residents for their Emirates ID under the pretence of collecting information for the \u201cupcoming census.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sounds official, right? That\u2019s exactly the problem.<\/p>\n

These individuals are showing up looking the part, well-dressed, carrying what appear to be formal documents and letterheads with the Ministry\u2019s name. But it\u2019s all fake. According to reports, once they\u2019re inside, their real goal is to rob people\u2019s homes.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s the kind of scam that plays on trust, especially when someone shows up claiming to be from the government and asking for official documents.<\/p>\n
