The Transport Department today alerted citizens to fraudulent websites claiming to be those of the Public Transport Fare Subsidy Scheme which seek to deceive AlipayHK users under the scheme into providing personal data, including mobile phone numbers and credit card accounts.
The addresses of such websites are http[:]//alipaiyhk[.]online/hk/Login.html, and https[:]//fet-woxx[.]online/hk.
The department clarified that the fraudulent websites are in no way affiliated with the scheme. The case has been referred to Police for follow-up.
It also reminded the public that AlipayHK’s mobile app is the only channel for checking and collecting the transport subsidy under AlipayHK. Moreover, enquiry services about the Public Transport Fare Subsidy Scheme in relation to AlipayHK are only provided via the AlipayHK mobile app and the designated hotline 3002 0905.
The department further advised members of the public to stay alert when receiving unidentified messages and not visit suspicious websites or disclose any personal information.
Anyone who has provided personal data to the websites concerned should contact Police.
