Every week, fake websites imitate Algérie Poste and BaridiMob to steal the credentials and codes of thousands of Algerians. Here is how to spot them in seconds.
1. Check the address, not the logo
A fake site copies the logo and colours perfectly. Only the address tells the truth: Algérie Poste’s official website ends with poste.dz. Anything else (“poste-dz.com”, “baridimob-secure.tk”…) is suspicious.
2. Watch out for disguised letters
Scammers swap a letter for a look-alike: a Cyrillic “а” instead of a Latin “a”, a 0 instead of an o, a 1 instead of an i. To the naked eye, both addresses look identical.
3. Free domain extensions are a red flag
Domains ending in .tk, .ml, .ga, .cf or .xyz are widely used for scams; no official banking service uses them.
4. Messages that rush you or promise something
“Your card will be blocked in 24 hours”, “you won a gift”, “refund pending”: these SMS, WhatsApp or Facebook messages are designed to make you click without thinking.
5. Nobody will ever ask for your codes
Algérie Poste will never ask for your password or an SMS code by phone, SMS, WhatsApp or social media.
BaridiMob: official stores only
Install BaridiMob only from Google Play, the App Store or AppGallery — never from a link or an APK file sent by message.
