Scammers may use fake offers and social media accounts to steal money and personal information
Dubai: Dubai Police has warned residents about fake websites and social media accounts promoting fraudulent offers linked to Global Village Season 31. Scammers may create pages that look similar to official platforms to trick people into making fake purchases or sharing personal information that could later be misused.
The warning comes as Global Village prepares to launch its exclusive VIP Packs for Season 31. Presales will run from September 21 to 25, allowing visitors to purchase their preferred packs early for an additional fee. General sales will begin on September 26. The VIP Packs will be released in stages through the Coca-Cola Arena website*. Police noted that similar scams tend to appear every year around the announcement of Global Village activities and packages.
Residents are advised to be careful with unusually cheap prices and offers that seem too good to be true. Tickets and packages should only be purchased through official and authorised channels. People should also avoid clicking links or following social media accounts from unknown sources. Anyone who comes across a suspicious account or link can report it through the Dubai Police eCrime platform or by calling 901. Such reports help authorities combat cybercrime and protect others from falling victim to scams.
