Phone call scams
In telephone scam attempts, the caller may put greater pressure and urgency on you to make a payment or give personal details during the call.
You should not give personal details to someone who calls and asks:
- Digital Mobile Key codes
- Digital signature codes for the Digital Mobile Key
- Security codes received by SMS or in the ‘Autenticação.Gov’ application
- PIN codes for your Citizen Card
Likewise, you should never make a payment without confirming with the organisation responsible that you have a debt.
