In recent hours, many citizens have received personal messages stating that they are invited to a police investigation, with the signatory of the message being none other than the Police Commissioner, Chief Superintendent Kobi Shabtai.
Police notice
In a statement published by the police, it is stated that the Commissioner has received several inquiries in the last few hours from public figures who received the false statement and instructed to immediately open an investigation. These are false messages (fake news) that are intended to cause panic in the public.
The police call on the public not to reply to these messages, to ignore their content and to block the profile from which the message was sent.
