Cyber Bureau makes a request for ConnectIPS users:
The bureau has requested ConnectIPS users:
- Not to tap/click these links

The cases of online scams are increasing each day. Digital technologies have unlocked connectivity and opportunities; however, they have also created opportunities for fraudsters to prey on unsuspecting users. We request that ConnectIPS users stay highly alert against this current threat of online scams. A few months ago, we had a case of NEPSE AI scamming people out of millions. We hope the current ConnectIPS users won’t fall victim to the fraudulent messages.
Here’s the official notice of the bureau.
