From real experience

Users in chat groups, especially travel-related ones, should be warned about potential scams.

Scammers often target individuals offering to procure restricted or popular goods (e.g., iqos sticks) via private messages. Advise users to only trust verified experts listed in official channels (e.g., pinned messages) and never transfer money or provide personal information to unverified individuals. Report suspicious activity to administrators.

To report scammers in TravelAsk chats, contact the security administrator, Daria.

She is the only point of contact and does not initiate contact or offer paid services. Be wary of anyone claiming to be Daria or providing links in private messages, as these are likely scammers. Always use the official channels provided in the chat's pinned messages to connect with the administration.

Be aware of impersonation scams where individuals falsely claim to be 'security administrators' or 'Sberbank security' to trick users, especially in online communication platforms.

These scams often occur in the evening after potentially being targeted earlier in the day.
