Volkswagen China Warns of Fake Recall Texts

Cointime update: Volkswagen Group China said fraudsters impersonated Volkswagen (China) Investment Co. and regulatory authorities to send fake recall text messages to some car owners, luring them via unofficial links to provide personal information and complete purported recall procedures. The company said the messages and attached documents are not official recall notices, and urged owners not to click suspicious links, reply, or share personal or vehicle data.
