Fraudsters created a fake website that disguised itself as Diyu and offered to install a fake application to steal users’ personal data. However, this game can only be downloaded through the App Store or Google Play, and any files from unknown sites may pose a serious security risk.

This was reported by the application's press service.. Scammers register domains whose names are very similar to the official addresses of government services. After clicking on such a link, the user sees a page that can almost completely copy the design of a real game. Next, the visitor is offered to download the supposedly official application through a browser or install the file directly from the site. It is at this stage that the greatest danger arises. After installing such a file, attackers can gain access to personal information on your smartphone, messages, contacts, or even banking services.

The Dii team reported that the detected fraudulent resource has already been blocked. However, experts warn that similar sites may reappear under new addresses.. This is why users are advised not to trust links from instant messengers, emails or social media posts, even if they look convincing.

Experts remind you of a few simple rules of digital security. Firstly, the official Diya application can be downloaded exclusively through the App Store for iPhone or Google Play for Android devices. Secondly, the only official web portal of the service remains the Diya website; any other addresses that differ by at least one letter may be unsafe.

You should also pay attention to strange requests to install files, enter bank details or confirm personal information. Cybersecurity experts note that government services are often targeted by fraudsters due to the high level of trust among citizens. Attackers rely on the fact that people are accustomed to using popular digital platforms and may not notice a substitution of a website address or other suspicious signs. Fraudsters become especially active during the launch of new government assistance programs, payments, or updates to electronic services.. Experts advise adhering to basic rules of cyber hygiene:.
