SINGAPORE - In less than a week, hackers have twice impersonated electronic giants Challenger and Harvey Norman, in a bid to stage phishing attacks by directing customers to fake sites.
When contacted, Challenger told The Straits Times on Monday it communicates with its customers only through its official Facebook page, app and shopping sites.Said its spokesman:"Challenger would like to remind members of the public to only trust promotions and information shared on our official communication channels, which include posts made on official Challenger Facebook page, notifications and messages via our ValueClub app and ValueClub emails, or on our Hachi.tech shopping site.
The fake Facebook page, which has disappeared from the social media platform, was named"Harvey Norman-Singapore", which resembles closely the legitimate"Harvey Norman Singapore" Facebook page.
