The Centre for Cybersecurity Belgium, together with the FSMA, Febelfin, the FPS Economy, the Cyber Security Coalition and the police prevention services, is today launching a large-scale awareness campaign via Safeonweb, a first on this scale in Belgium. The campaign is intended to raise public awareness of fake online investment offers. This fraudulent technique has burdened Belgians in the first half of the year with losses totalling 15 million euros. The new campaign coincides with both World Investor Week and European Cybersecurity Month, and emphasizes the importance of digital vigilance.
