Current Situation: Inquiry
The Belarus Ministry of Education has issued a warning to educational institutions and staff about a series of suspicious letters circulating, purporting to be official communications. These letters, which often contain phrases like "Urgent!" and threats of account blocking, are likely scams.
The letters in question ask for voluntary detachments of up to 500 people to "repel aggression." However, the Ministry emphasizes that all important changes are only announced through official channels, and such requests coming through messengers or emails are highly suspicious.
Teachers are advised to verify "urgent" calls and messages regarding the payment of fines, fees, or the transfer of account access. The Ministry urges everyone to be vigilant and not to fall for provocations. Staff are advised to check the sources and information carefully.
The Ministry of Education has previously provided tips on how to avoid becoming a victim of fraud. These include never sharing login credentials with anyone, not clicking on links in suspicious emails, and avoiding grant offers via a link. Official structures also do not request logins, passwords, or access codes over the phone.
Fake orders, bans, threats, and "anonymous" letters have no legal force. Information can be verified on the Ministry's official website (edu.gov.by), in newsletters from the education department, with the school director, in official Telegram channels, and on the Ministry's social media.
It's important to note that the identity of the entity responsible for issuing false letters demanding universities create voluntary separations of up to 500 people to "avert attacks" is not specified in the search results and appears to be unverified or unreported in available sources.
Real documents always have details, a signature, a date, and are sent through official channels. Suspicious letters may be sent from addresses that do not end in @edu.gov.by. If in doubt, it's better to call the education department's official number or request a notification in such cases.
The Ministry has stated that official documents do not contain spelling and stylistic errors, absurd or illogical formulations, non-existent email addresses, or contradictions to the legislation and the mission of education. Letters that mimic an official style but contain these elements are likely fraudulent.
The Ministry of Education has reportedly been denying these forged letters as such. It's crucial for everyone to stay vigilant and report any suspicious communications to the appropriate authorities.
