Reaching Out to the Community – Assistant Privacy Commissioner Interviewed by Media to Explain Anti-Fraud Promotional and Educational Activities
Assistant Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (Corporate Communications and Operations), Ms Joyce LAI, was interviewed by RTHK Radio 3 “Backchat” on 14 August to elaborate on a series of anti-fraud promotional and educational activities launched by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data (PCPD), which primarily target tertiary students.
With the new academic year approaching, the Assistant Privacy Commissioner pointed out that the PCPD has released an anti-fraud animated video targeting tertiary students. The video will also be disseminated to tertiary institutions for on-campus screening. In addition, the PCPD is organising a school tour featuring anti-fraud educational talks and will collaborate with other organisations to host exhibitions, with a view to raising awareness of preventing fraud and protecting personal data privacy among tertiary students.
In the interview, the Assistant Privacy Commissioner further mentioned that the PCPD has launched the “Anti-Fraud Tips” thematic webpage to help members of the public learn more about fraud prevention.
