📣This message is shared through UNHCR’s WhatsApp communication📣
UNHCR and humanitarian actors are aware of reports of people contacting refugees and falsely claiming to represent humanitarian organizations. They are asking for private and sensitive photos or videos in exchange for assistance.
Do not believe them and do not share any private and sensitive pictures or videos!
Remember:
- All humanitarian assistance is free of charge
- No one should ever ask you for money, private and sensitive pictures or video, any type of favor, or anything else in exchange for help
- You have the right to say NO to any request that makes you uncomfortable
If someone claiming to be from UNHCR or another local or international organization behaves inappropriately with you, please report it immediately.
