scam messages

An individual received a scam message from the BC Ministry of Finance regarding an International Student Health Fee, prompting them to call a non-official phone number. They shared their name and phone number but no financial details, later blocking the number and resetting their phone. Concerns remain about potential misuse of their personal information.

A TikTok user with a moderate following frequently receives scam messages offering sugar daddy/mommy relationships, often identified by poor spelling or repetitive responses. Recently, a new message included WhatsApp contact details and minimal personal information, causing confusion about its legitimacy.
