Warning about impersonation scams using malware for social insurance

Fraudsters are employing deceptive tactics by impersonating agencies related to social insurance (BHXH) and health insurance (BHYT). They capitalize on the public's need to search for information and complete administrative procedures concerning BHXH and BHYT. The objective of these scammers is to pressure individuals into installing fake applications containing malicious software onto their devices. Once the harmful application is installed, the fraudsters can gain control over the device or access personal information, subsequently stealing the victims' assets. Authorities have issued a warning about this form of scam, advising the public to be extremely vigilant. People are recommended to only use official information channels and legitimate applications from state agencies for looking up information and conducting transactions related to social and health insurance, and to avoid offers to install applications from unknown sources.

Key points
* Scammers impersonate social and health insurance agencies.
* They coerce people into installing malware applications.
* The aim is to appropriate victims' assets.
