Dubai Police have detected attempts by fraudsters to exploit recent developments by impersonating employees purportedly affiliated with the 'Dubai Crisis Management' department and falsely claiming links to the force.
These attempts aim to unlawfully obtain sensitive information, including UAE Pass credentials and Emirates ID details.
Dubai Police caution that disclosing such data may enable criminals to carry out SIM swap operations and gain unauthorised access to bank accounts through mobile applications.
The authority stressed that it never requests confidential information or verification codes by phone or text.
The public is urged not to share personal or banking details and to report suspicious activity immediately by calling 901 or via the eCrime platform.
In light of the current circumstances, Dubai Police have detected attempts by fraudsters to exploit recent developments by impersonating employees purportedly affiliated with the “Dubai Crisis Management” department and falsely claiming links to Dubai Police.
