SEOUL, December 16 (AJP) - Victims of transnational crimes such as online scams and phishing schemes, as well as those who encounter or are aware of misinformation threatening national security and public safety, can dial 111 to report them, the National Intelligence Service (NIS) said on Tuesday.
They also can text to #0111 or leave messages on the NIS' website around the clock.
These crimes involve multiple countries or foreign nationals, including voice phishing, overseas employment fraud, online scams, and international drug-related offenses targeting South Koreans.
The spy agency urged citizens to immediately report any such incidents, warning that the recent surge in these crimes "poses a threat to national security."
