According to the Food Safety Management Board of Da Nang City, recently the unit has continuously received feedback and questions from many organizations and individuals about receiving invitations to paid training.
Accordingly, someone claiming to be an "officer of the Department of Food Safety and Environmental Hygiene" called businesses and food service establishments in Son Tra District, informing them of the invitation to participate in food safety training.
The Da Nang City Food Safety Management Board recommends that organizations and individuals need to clearly verify the contact unit impersonating to commit fraud. In the photo: The Da Nang City Food Safety Management Board trains facilities
