Learn to recognise phishing scams and online fraud
Phishing e-mails are intended to steal your personal data even your banking data. The email will typically prompt you for personal or banking data or direct you to a website to log into your account.
Emails might appear to come from Qatar Duty Free or Qatar Airways. Even the email address might appear to be from a qatarairways.com/qatardutyfree.com.qa. Emails might appear to be from someone you know.
They might include official-looking Qatar Duty Free or Qatar Airways logos and other information taken directly from qatarairways.com or qatardutyfree.com. Phishing emails might include convincing details about your personal information that the fraudster found on your social networking pages.
They might include links to spoofed websites where you are asked to provide your account login details. The spoofed website might look similar to a website from Qatar Duty Free or Qatar Airways.
Protect yourself from online fraud
Be suspicious of any email that asks for personal information or asks you to update your account details.
Before clicking on a link in the email, verify that the website address displayed matches the actual link and is not a "masked" website.

Ensure that your browser has opened a genuine qatarairways.com or qmiles.com or qatardutyfree.com website address. Online fraudsters often use web addresses that closely resemble the name of a well-known company but are slightly altered by adding, omitting or transposing letters.
