"Take foreign language certificate exams on your behalf. Payment upon receiving the score. PTE-IELTS-TOEIC. Guaranteed to achieve your goal, only one attempt required."

Payment is required upon receipt of the new results - including verification and post-audit.

These kinds of overly flattering advertisements are appearing on social media with the words "sponsored".

The advertisement became even more dangerous when it was linked to the name of a large language center, along with a photo of the center's owner. Below the post, many people inquired about the information.

Numerous advertisements offering services to take English language proficiency exams on behalf of others, including many prestigious international certificates, are openly available online. One fan page with over 3,400 followers even claims to be affiliated with an educational company.

Checking online, I found that the E. language center had warned about the exploitation and use of images to advertise exam cheating services.

E.'s verified Facebook account stated: "Some malicious individuals are using images, articles, and information impersonating the E. brand for nefarious purposes… E. has recorded cases where students have been scammed out of tens of millions of VND but have not received the desired qualifications."

Similarly, the M. language center has posted warnings and instructions on how to distinguish between fake and official websites...

International language proficiency exams have strict and rigorous procedures and organization. People need to be wary of online advertisements offering to take exams on their behalf.

To avoid being scammed, students themselves must be honest, serious, and committed to studying and taking exams genuinely.

Otherwise, you could face consequences if you are caught using fake certificates or cheating on exams. In the short term, you could lose money immediately due to dishonesty and blindly believing deceptive online advertisements.

We earnestly hope that the authorities will take strong action to stop advertisements promoting the types of scams that are still rampant online.

Impersonating officials to set traps.

There are websites impersonating law firms, lawyers, and police agencies to advertise services for recovering outstanding loans and capital held online. This has been warned about for a long time, but internet users still see new, even more outrageous advertisements.

The scam is sophisticated and ruthless in its attempts to recover capital. Below the video, there will be links accompanied by images of lawyers or people wearing police uniforms to build trust and encourage contact.

On the afternoon of March 31, the Ministry of Finance announced that a fake Facebook page of the Ministry of Finance was being used to scam people out of their money.

This page uses images and information from the Ministry of Finance, falsely claiming to represent the Ministry of Finance and capable of "recovering money" for victims of online fraud. The Ministry advises citizens and businesses to report any signs of fraud to the authorities.
