Kapanlagi.com - Recently, online fraud schemes have been on the rise. One of them involves scams impersonating certain e-wallets or digital wallet applications, such as DANA. The modus operandi involves the perpetrators sending fake DANA Kaget links, which they then use to carry out their actions.

DANA Kaget itself is a feature within the DANA app that allows users to share their DANA balance with friends and relatives simultaneously. DANA Kaget is shared in the form of a link that DANA Premium users can send to other DANA users through various messaging apps.

Unfortunately, many victims have fallen into the trap of bad actors through these fake DANA Kaget links. Therefore, to ensure you don’t become the next target of e-wallet fraudsters, make sure to understand their modus operandi.

Through the #AwasJebakanBadman campaign, DANA wants to help you avoid falling victim to these irresponsible individuals. Let’s take a look at the 3 important steps!

1. If There Are Suspicious Activities, Monitor Them!

Be aware and detect if there are any suspicious activities contacting you through certain messages. Usually, these messages come from unknown numbers. If the individual sends a DANA Kaget link, make sure to check if the link is genuine or not. Remember, the genuine DANA Kaget link format starts with https://link.dana.id/; if the format is different, do not click it.

2. Ensure Its Accuracy by Confirming

In the meantime, double-check the suspicious activity by verifying its accuracy. Confirm whether the information truly comes from a trusted source? You can directly confirm with the service provider. For example, to verify if the DANA Kaget link itself is genuine or fake, you can check directly in the DANA Protection feature available within the DANA app.

3. Don't Hesitate to Report Fraudsters Sending Fake DANA Kaget Links

After monitoring and confirming that the suspicious activity you received points to a scam modus, do not hesitate to report the individual who sent you the fake DANA Kaget link through the DANA Protection feature as it will be directly connected to services from Kominfo. Don’t forget to block the unknown number and also report it to the service provider, so that no one else becomes a victim of this fake DANA Kaget link scam.

If there is an e-wallet scam modus in the form of a fake DANA Kaget link, be cautious! #BewareOfBadmanTrap! Because, the real DANA Kaget can only be accessed through the DANA app, not a browser. Additionally, the real DANA Kaget can be claimed directly in the DANA app if the account is in Log In status.

Not only that, you also need to remember these points to stay safe from scam modus: Do not download and install the DANA app from links shared in instant messaging groups, such as WhatsApp, Telegram, and others. Always keep your PIN and OTP Code confidential, and never share them with anyone, including DANA. After that, immediately change your PIN if you accidentally clicked on an unclear link, or if you mistakenly shared your PIN and OTP Code. It should be noted that the official DANA social media accounts are the ones with a blue checkmark, so don’t be fooled by similar accounts.

These are some important steps that you must understand and apply in your daily life, so you do not become a victim of the badman trap in the form of this fake DANA Kaget link. Always be cautious when receiving suspicious messages. Monitor, confirm, and report it immediately using the DANA Protection feature in the DANA app. Let's download the DANA app now too!
