My question is: what will happen if I have already sent my informations such as:
my name, occupation, age, phone number, address and the scan of my IC card.
I still had doubts when I received a message on WhatsApp and afterwards the message told me to send to claims@un-un.org a return email
I have visited the UNCC web page to get some informations and clarify my ideas a bit.
What stupidity I got screwed, so far they haven't had my banking info or anything
