SINGAPORE — Scammers have been posing as employees of food delivery and reservation app Oddle Eats, in a bid to get people to reveal their personal information online.
In an email sent to customers on Wednesday , Oddle Eats warned of impersonators sending out links to"surveys" via messaging platform WhatsApp to people at random and falsely claiming to be from the company.
The company said that its technology team immediately investigated the incident to ensure that they did not suffer a data leak, adding that they did not find any suspicious activity and “there is absolutely no indication that there has been a data breach". Oddle Eats said that they made a police report on Monday and that fewer than 20 people had contacted the support team for assistance.
“This is also a reminder that the only way Oddle will ever reach out to you is from one of our verified accounts. This will come from SMS or WhatsApp Senders named ‘Oddle’ or ‘Oddle Eats’ only,” the company said.
