Stay Safe from Phishing & Fraudulent Communications

At Meydan Free Zone, your security and trust are extremely important to us.

‍
We would like to inform our customers and partners about phishing and fraudulent communication attempts where scammers impersonate trusted organizations to mislead businesses and individuals.

‍

Being aware is the first step to staying protected.

What Is a Phishing Attack?

A phishing attack is a fraudulent attempt to obtain sensitive information or payments by pretending to be a legitimate organization.

‍

These communications are often designed to look authentic and may reference:

  • Business licensing or renewals
  • Visa or compliance matters
  • Invoices or payment requests
  • Urgent actions requiring immediate response

Fraudsters commonly use similar-looking email domains, websites, logos, sender names, and language to appear official and trustworthy.

Official Meydan Free Zone Website

Please note that the only official website of Meydan Free Zone is: www.meydanfz.ae

Any communication coming from domains that are misspelled, altered, or use additional words or extensions should be treated with caution.

What Meydan Free Zone Will Never Do

To help you identify fraudulent activity, please note that Meydan Free Zone will never:

  • Request your passwords, one-time passcodes (OTPs), or banking credentials
  • Ask for sensitive information via SMS, personal WhatsApp numbers, or unofficial email addresses
  • Pressure you into immediate action without formal and verifiable communication
  • Request payments through unverified links or unofficial channels

If a message contradicts any of the above, it is likely fraudulent.

How to Stay Protected

We strongly recommend the following best practices:

  • Always verify the sender’s email address and domain carefully
  • Avoid clicking on links or downloading attachments from unknown or unexpected messages
  • Be cautious of generic greetings, spelling mistakes, or unusual language
  • Treat messages marked “urgent” with care and verify them independently before acting

Unsure About a Message?

If you receive any communication that you are unsure about, do not take action immediately.
We strongly recommend verifying it with us directly.
