한국 비자·출입국 공지What was announced
Korea's Ministry of Justice warns that callers posing as Seoul Immigration may claim you have uncollected documents and ask for personal information. Immigration offices do not request documents or personal data by international phone call.
What you should know
The Ministry described international calls beginning with numbers such as 06 or 00682. A recorded message claimed an important document was waiting at Seoul Immigration. When the recipient pressed a key, the caller attempted to obtain personal information. The Ministry advises ending the call without following the recorded instructions.
