"Experience Voice Phishing"...Focused Prevention Campaign Ahead of Chuseok

Financial Supervisory Service and Korea Federation of Banks Take Action to Prevent Voice Phishing

The Financial Supervisory Service and the Korea Federation of Banks have decided to jointly promote a focused awareness campaign period (September 4 to September 27) in the financial sector ahead of the Chuseok holiday, when an increase in voice phishing is expected, to prevent damage.

On the 11th, content that allows users to experience voice phishing cases encountered in daily life as if in real situations will be developed and posted on the Financial Supervisory Service's "Voice Phishing Cyber Experience Center." A drama-style production combining recently frequent messenger phishing and face-to-face extortion methods has been created, structured so that different scenarios unfold based on the participant's step-by-step choices.

From November 11 to 26, a "Fishing Event" will be held to raise awareness of messenger phishing and face-to-face extortion methods. Among users of the experiential content, 35,000 people will be selected by lottery to receive Americano gifticons.

During Seoul Youth Week, from the 16th to the 17th, a voice phishing awareness booth will be operated at the plaza in front of Seoul City Hall. Prevention education videos on bankbook threats will be posted on the "Small Business Knowledge Learning Center" operated by the Small Enterprise and Market Service and on GongsaJang TV (YouTube).
