The Lebanese Internal Security Forces (ISF) have issued a warning after a recent surge in emails and text messages sent to individuals and local organizations. The senders claim to be from the Israeli intelligence agency, Mossad, and the messages appear to involve threats or attempts at extortion, possibly aimed at gathering information or creating confusion among citizens.

The ISF urges the public not to respond or engage with these messages under any circumstances and to report them immediately to the relevant security units. Prompt reporting helps reduce the risk of exploitation, protects citizens and institutions, and strengthens national cybersecurity.

The ISF emphasizes that immediate reporting of suspicious messages is crucial for preventing potential threats, safeguarding the public, and maintaining digital security.
