The Prosecutor's Office has warned social media users in the country to avoid contact with unauthorized parties because they tend to utilize fraudulent techniques to scam users by advertising themselves as providing beneficial schemes across various social media platforms. 

The officials have requested social media users to ensure that the entities they are dealing with have the necessary licenses issued by the relevant authorities in the UAE to conduct the financial activities.

People who commit wire fraud can get a prison sentence of at least one year or a fine between AED 250,000 and AED 1,000,000.
