Fraudulent emails from ros

You're referring to fraudulent emails claiming to be from ROS (Registry of Societies) in Malaysia!

ROS is a government agency responsible for registering and regulating societies in Malaysia. Unfortunately, scammers have been using the ROS name to send fraudulent emails to unsuspecting victims.

Here are some common characteristics of fraudulent emails claiming to be from ROS:

  1. Urgent tone: The email may create a sense of urgency, claiming that your society's registration is about to expire or that there's an issue with your registration that needs to be addressed immediately.
  2. Suspicious links: The email may contain links that appear to be from ROS, but are actually phishing attempts to steal your login credentials or personal information.
  3. Poor grammar and spelling: Legitimate government agencies like ROS typically have professional email templates and writing styles. Be wary of emails with poor grammar and spelling.
  4. Unusual requests: ROS will never ask you to provide sensitive information, such as your password or credit card details, via email. Be cautious of emails requesting such information.
  5. Unofficial contact information: Legitimate government agencies like ROS will always provide official contact information, such as a phone number or physical address. Be wary of emails with unofficial contact information.

What to do if you receive a suspicious email claiming to be from ROS:

  1. Do not respond: Do not reply to the email or click on any links.
  2. Verify the email: Contact ROS directly using their official contact information to verify the authenticity of the email.
  3. Report the email: Report the email to the Malaysian Communications and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) or the ROS itself.

Remember, it's always better to err on the side of caution when dealing with official government agencies. If you're unsure about the authenticity of an email, it's best to verify the information through official channels.
