The South Korean government alerts users about increased smishing scams involving fraudulent messages pretending to be related to 'Consumption Recovery Coupons'. These scams, expected to rise with the coupon distribution, include fake notifications about payments or applications with fraudulent internet links (URLs). Users are advised to apply for these coupons through official apps, websites, or in-person at designated local offices or banks. Authorities emphasize that legitimate messages concerning these coupons will not contain URLs, and users should delete and report suspicious texts to the Korean Internet Security Agency by dialing 118 for assistance.
