DSB, the Danish State Railways, is warning its customers about a surge in fraudulent messages that are circulating among users. Scammers are sending fake SMS and email messages impersonating DSB. In a post on the social media platform X, DSB has confirmed that these messages are attempts at phishing.

Phishing is a fraudulent scheme where scammers attempt to trick recipients into sharing personal information, often for financial gain. It is crucial to remain skeptical of unexpected messages, even if they appear to come from a trustworthy source. If you receive such a message, it is advisable to directly contact the purported sender to verify its authenticity.

Additionally, you can check the sender’s email address or phone number against the company’s official contact details. In instances of phishing, the fabricated sender’s number or email address will rarely match the company’s official information.

The best advice is to avoid clicking on any links or sharing personal information if you have doubts about the legitimacy of the message. Should you have questions or require further guidance regarding these fraudulent messages, DSB recommends contacting them directly at the phone number +45 79 13 14 15.
