Fraudsters try to obtain the payment card details from the website’s users. They contact the victim via isntant messaging services such as WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger by sending them a link to a fraudulent page posing for the OLX payment site in order to complete the transaction. The fake page displayed the process of ordering shipment, in order to pay for the courier service, you must provide your personal data, payment card number and security code.
