- Israeli cyber agencies warn of fake GOV.IL messages requesting payments with malicious links.
- The scam exploits SMS display methods on some devices, not a GOV.IL system breach.
- Recipients are advised not to click links or enter personal or credit card details.
- Payments should only be made through official GOV.IL websites and personal accounts.
- The warning was issued following detection of these fraudulent messages in the past hour.
The National Cyber Directorate and the National Digital Directorate in Israel have issued a warning about fraudulent messages impersonating GOV.IL. These messages, appearing within existing GOV.IL SMS threads, request payment and include harmful links. Investigations revealed that this is due to the way SMS messages are displayed on certain devices, not a breach of GOV.IL systems. Authorities advise recipients not to click on any links, avoid entering personal or credit card information, and to only make payments through official websites by logging into their personal accounts directly, rather than via message links.
