QR Code Scam

Educational, Living in Welsh
QR Code

Be careful, there are cases of people suffering huge losses from scanning QR codes all over the UK.

Especially for the automatic payment machines in parking lots, you must pay attention to the authenticity of the QR code, because some victims are taken to a fake website after scanning the code, and then asked to enter detailed personal information, making you think you are paying for parking, but in fact your bank information is stolen.

Call on the public to pay special attention:
Before scanning the code, make sure that the QR code is not covered on another QR code. If you see a notice saying:
“The previous QR code failed, please use this one” Be especially cautious, it is likely to be a scam.

If you have doubts,

  • It is best to download the program APP directly from the Apple or Google App Store on your phone,
  • Or search for information on the official website.
  • Note that the URL starts with https, because it is safer and more reliable than http.
  • In short, if you feel unsafe, don’t enter your personal information and data.
