She also advised them to be vigilant of fraudsters at the same time. “As we celebrate the Festive Season, we request all Namibians to be vigilant, as this is the best way to fight fraud during the Festive Season,” she said. “Remember, never share your personal banking information such as your Personal Identity Number (PIN) with anyone, not even a bank official or security guards at Automatic Teller Machines (ATMs).”
