Treasury of the Republic of Cyprus warns of email phishing scams

On July 10, 2026, the Treasury of the Republic of Cyprus issued a formal warning regarding fraudulent emails circulating among the public. These messages use the Treasury's official logo to deceive recipients into believing they are entitled to an ATA cost-of-living adjustment payment. The emails request users to verify personal information and bank account details through malicious links or forms. The Treasury explicitly stated that these communications are phishing attempts designed to steal financial data. Citizens are advised to ignore and delete such messages immediately. Officials clarified that all legitimate electronic communication from the Treasury is strictly conducted through email addresses ending in @treasury.gov.cy. The agency urged individuals to exercise caution and avoid interacting with suspicious correspondence.
