China News Service, October 18. According to the website of the Chinese Embassy in Portugal, recently, some overseas Chinese reported that some criminals used technical means to disguise the phone number as the consular security number of the Embassy in Portugal (963355431), and lied that it was China. The staff of the embassy in Portugal carried out telecommunication fraud against overseas Chinese in Portugal.

  The Chinese Embassy in Portugal solemnly reminds Chinese citizens in Portugal to beware of fraud and to keep the bottom line of not transferring money, not paying money, and not disclosing personal information.

If you cannot identify whether it is a fraudulent call, it is recommended to hang up the phone and contact the Chinese Embassy in Portugal or the Global Consular Protection and Service Emergency Call Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (+86-10-12308) for verification.

If you have been deceived unfortunately, please report the case to the Portuguese police (112) or the 110 police telephone of the public security organ where your household registration is located as soon as possible.

Chinese citizens in Portugal please share the reminders to each other.
