Scammers threaten with large fines for refusing to install fire extinguishers

Telephone scammers posing as employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations have become active in Belarus. Unknown individuals call people and demand that they install fire extinguishers in their homes, threatening large fines if they refuse. This way, criminals try to intimidate people and obtain their personal data, the press service of the Ministry of Emergency Situations warns .

The Ministry of Emergency Situations emphasizes that these are scammers.

Real employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations:

do not sell fire extinguishers, fire alarms, or other safety equipment;
do not issue fines over the phone;
do not demand passport data, bank card numbers, or SMS codes.

The installation of fire safety equipment in a private house or apartment is voluntary and is done for personal safety.

People are advised to be vigilant and warn their relatives, especially elderly family members, about such a scheme.
