Current Events: Inquiry About the Situation
In recent days, various educational institutions in Belarus have received suspicious letters, purporting to be from the Ministry of Education, ordering the creation of voluntary squads. However, the Ministry has denied sending such letters, labelling them as misinformation.
The letters, which often bear the sender's field as the Ministry of Education, are designed to mimic official style but may contain orthographic and stylistic errors. They request the formation of squads, with a recommended size of up to 500 people, for the supposed purpose of "defense against attacks."
It's crucial for recipients to exercise caution, especially if the request comes through messengers or emails. Suspicious letters may originate from email addresses that do not end in @edu.gov.by. Moreover, links provided in these letters are usually inactive or incorrect.
Grants are not given via a link, and official documents from the Ministry of Education (Minobr) do not contain errors, absurd or illogical formulations, non-existent electronic addresses, or indications that contradict the legislation and the mission of education.
Phrases like "Urgent!" or "Account will be blocked!" are indicative of scam messages. Recipients are advised not to use any login credentials with anyone without proper verification.
The Ministry has previously provided advice on how not to become a victim of fraud. In the case of "urgent" calls or messages regarding payment of fines, fees, or account access, teachers are asked to verify the information.
Official structures do not request logins, passwords, or access codes by phone. It's better to call the education department's official number or request a notification in such cases.
All important changes are announced only through official channels. Therefore, it's advisable to verify information on the official Minobr website (edu.gov.by), in newsletters from the education department, with the school director, in official Telegram channels, and on Minobr's social media.
Staff of educational institutions where such letters have arrived are asked to be vigilant and check the sources and information. If there is any doubt, it's always safer to err on the side of caution.
In conclusion, the public is urged to remain vigilant and exercise caution when receiving unexpected correspondence, especially those that seem urgent or threatening. Always verify information through official channels to avoid falling victim to fraud.
