Campaign ends with the achievement of expected results [3]

The information campaign on security of online payments and protection of privacy was carried out between 10 February and 10 April, with the title "Take care of your money with Visa and MPay." During the 2 months of the campaign, the public was informed about the enhanced security and the measures of protection against the latest scenarios, tricks and manipulation methods used by fraudsters who act online to break accounts, passwords, discover secret data related to bank cards, for the final purpose of stealing the money from the account through fraud.

The users of electronic services had the opportunity to learn through the game how to recognize fraudsters and avoid their pitfalls by using different interactive scenarios proposed in the educational game on financial security. The chatbot was available on the MPay platform, but also on the EGA pages on social media.

In addition, twice a week, on every Wednesday and Friday, the public received useful recommendations and advice from digital financial security experts on how to use the technology to their advantage, without incurring any loss and without any risks. On this occasion, the e-Governance Agency launched a new section to increase the digital literacy of the population, the Digital Dictionary of online safety. Through this section, everyone was able to find new information related to security and protection against attacks in the virtual environment. The public was introduced to terms such as social engineering and all its forms, cyberbullying and other concepts related to social media scams. The participants also received practical recommendations on the application of enhanced measures for the protection of confidential data and useful advice on combating these phenomena, which have recently been reported more and more often.

All campaign beneficiaries were able to test their knowledge of digital financial security, easily learning the basic rules of online security, becoming well-informed digital users. The action is a partnership between the e-Governance Agency, the Government Electronic Payment Service MPay and the Visa International Company.

The goal of the campaign has been achieved, as shown by statistics of hundreds of followers and participants in the interactive game, which continues to be available on the MPay Platform for all Internet and electronic payment users who have not managed to enter the game during the campaign.

It should be added that EGA experts continue to be available to the public to share their experience in helping citizens navigate safely, take advantage of opportunities in the complex online world, protect confidential data from fraudsters, and other issues good to know when making online payments.
