A fake Total Energies fuel allowance scam is circulating on social media where scammers are using fraudulent links, pretending to offer fuel allowances, to steal personal data and compromise devices.
How the Scam Works:
- Fake Promotion Message – Scammers create posts or messages claiming that TotalEnergies is offering a fuel allowance.
- Malicious Link – The message includes a fake website link that appears to be from TotalEnergies.
- Phishing Attack – Clicking the link may lead to a site asking for personal information, which is then stolen.
- Device Compromise – Some links may also contain malware that can infect your phone, laptop, or tablet.
How to Avoid This Scam:
- Do not click suspicious links – Always verify promotions on TotalEnergies’ official website: services.totalenergies.ug.
- Check official social media accounts – Follow @TotalEnergiesUG on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram for real updates.
- Report suspicious messages – If you receive such a scam message, do not engage; instead, report it to TotalEnergies or relevant authorities.
