What happened
In a post on X on October 13, 2026, a user in Spain reported receiving a message pretending to be from Spain's Social Security (INSS) that claimed they had €305.85 pending to collect.
The user said the linked website looked convincing but its domain was fake. The link in the post points to portalsilofgob.top.
How the scam works
Refund and benefit scams promise money you are owed to get you to click. The fake portal copies the government agency's look and asks for identity details and bank card information "to receive the payment". The details are then used to steal money or for identity fraud.
Spanish government sites use addresses ending in .gob.es, not .top.
Note: this report is based on a short public post on X. The "How the scam works" section describes how this type of scam generally operates; it does not add details about this specific site beyond what the post says.
