Cyber Intelligence & Threat Trends
A QR Code Scam is a type of cyber fraud where attackers create fake or tampered QR codes to trick users into scanning them. Once scanned, these codes can redirect victims to malicious websites designed to steal sensitive information, such as login credentials or financial details, or even install malware on their devices. QR Code Scams exploit the trust and convenience associated with QR codes, making it difficult for users to identify malicious intent before it’s too late. To stay safe, always verify the source of a QR code before scanning it and avoid entering personal information on unfamiliar websites.
