This week, a 70-year-old man lost a lot of money. He was scammed.
Scammers call people. They speak in Estonian. They say they are bank employees. They ask for the PIN code. Then they steal the money.
Scammers rush. People don't have time to think. They enter the PIN code and lose money.
Be careful. If someone calls and asks for money, don't give it. Say you will check the matter and call the police.
Banks use systems. These help stop suspicious transactions. If a customer talks to a scammer, the bank closes the account.
The police say: no institution will ever ask for a PIN code over the phone. Never give your PIN code to others.
The police are working to catch scammers.
