This message says that three million new registrations for the program have been released. And he explains that those who can request payment are: low income, retirees, beneficiaries of emergency aid and Bolsa Família.
However, to access the amounts, you must access the link to check whether you are entitled to the benefit and then request payment.
Through WhatsApp, it is possible to understand whether or not it is a scam, since government websites have a link with the information ''. gov.br’’ and on state government websites they have, for example, ‘’. sp.gov.br’’. Fake sites, on the other hand, do not have such an acronym and end with ''.com''.
The user is directed to an online page when clicking on the scammer's link. With the intention of deceiving users who are accessing the site, the scammers use Caixa's official brands. The site asks users to fill in some personal data and at that moment, unintentionally, the user becomes a victim and opens a door for scammers to access your personal data such as credit card and loans banking.
On several occasions the message arrives through people close to the victim. In this way, information is shared before its veracity is checked.
To avoid such scams, it is necessary to do an internet search to confirm the information.
