HIOA: We Never Request Personal Data via SMS

The Health Insurance Organisation (HIOA) is warning the public about the circulation of false and malicious SMS messages appearing to originate from the GHS. These messages mislead recipients by asking them to follow links to 'correct' their personal details. The HIOA stresses that it will never request personal data, passwords, payment details, or ask citizens to make any financial transactions via SMS or links. Citizens are urged not to open the links and to delete suspicious messages immediately. This announcement follows previous warnings about similar scams. The HIOA and the GHS have no connection with the sending of these messages.
