澳大430名防騙大使就職
為響應澳門特別行政區政府司法警察局與教育及青年發展局合作推出的“校園防騙疫苗計劃”，澳門大學於今（8）日委任逾 430 名學生領袖擔任第二屆防騙大使，冀以朋輩間的正面力量，推動校園防騙宣傳工作。
第二屆防騙大使就職儀式上，澳大副校長莫啓明與司法警察局副局長蘇兆強共同向學生防騙大使頒發委任狀。今屆防騙大使延續過去的多元組成架構，成員分別來自澳大十所住宿式書院、研究生宿舍小導師計劃、澳大學生會及司法警察局“社區安全青年領袖計劃”。
莫啓明在致辭中指出，澳大自2023年4月成立防騙專責小組以來，持續開展防騙宣傳活動，並於今年1月委任首屆防騙大使。為強化校園防騙工作，大學積極落實多項措施，包括透過住宿式書院及法學院通識課程，向所有大一學生進行防騙教育；推動學生填寫防騙測驗卷進行風險評估；向學生家長傳遞防騙資訊；在校內恆常發佈防騙資訊及多渠道宣傳；邀請司法警察局入校舉辦講座；由宿生領袖向宿生進行一對一防騙宣講；舉辦“反詐微電影創作大賽”。此外，隨著澳大橫琴合作區校區的發展，大學亦積極組織學生參與合作區防騙活動，選派學生代表擔任“反詐先鋒”。大學期待持續與相關部門合作，共同減少詐騙案件，營造安全校園環境。
蘇兆強表示，今年前三季高校學生遭受“公檢法”詐騙的案件數量較去年同期顯著下降，證明防騙宣傳工作取得了有目共睹的成效。他特別感謝澳大全體教職員及學生對反詐防騙的重視，大學全方位的配合是成功的關鍵。他強調，防騙是一場持久戰，詐騙手法正不斷更新，近期已出現從“公檢法”詐騙轉向“假冒客服”的新趨勢。面對挑戰，司法警察局將繼續與教育界緊密協作，保持警覺，並期望新一屆防騙大使繼續發揮同輩影響力，將最新的防騙資訊滲透校園每個角落，不讓騙徒有機可乘。
兩名澳大學生代表分享了防騙推廣的實踐經驗。澳大工商管理學院、曹光彪書院學生李寧結合自身遭遇，分享有人冒充治安警察局出入境管制廳人員的詐騙經歷，提醒非澳門新生提高警惕，並建議學生建立“群體防騙網”，及時分享可疑訊息。澳大法學院、何鴻燊書院學生蔡子軒則分享他自中學至今參與司法警察局青年計劃活動的經驗，呼籲防騙大使們積極動員身邊學生持續關注防騙資訊，善用反詐工具並將防騙知識融入日常交流。司法警察局關注少年科及反詐騙協調中心亦在現場特別設置防騙宣傳攤位，向到場師生傳遞最新防騙資訊。
出席嘉賓還包括司法警察局資訊罪案調查處處長龍漢威及教育及青年發展局學生廳職務主管洪慧敏。澳大多位住宿式書院院長、學生事務長彭執中，以及逾 200 名師生代表亦有參與。

UM inaugurates over 430 scam prevention ambassadors
In response to the on-campus anti-fraud campaign jointly launched by the Judiciary Police and the Education and Youth Development Bureau (DSEDJ) of the Macao SAR government, the University of Macau (UM) held an inauguration ceremony for the second cohort of scam prevention ambassadors today (8 October). During the ceremony, over 430 student ambassadors were inaugurated. The university hopes that the ambassadors will promote fraud awareness on campus through positive peer influence.
During the inauguration ceremony, Mok Kai Meng, vice rector of UM, and Sou Sio Keong, deputy director of the Judiciary Police, presented certificates of appointment to the student ambassadors. Following the same structure as the previous cohort, the new cohort of scam prevention ambassadors comprise members from UM’s ten residential colleges, the House Tutor Programme of the Postgraduate House, the University of Macau Students’ Union, and the Judiciary Police’s Community Security Youth Leader Programme.
In his speech, Mok noted that UM has introduced a range of scam prevention measures since setting up a task force on scam prevention in April 2023. These measures include incorporating anti-fraud education into courses, asking students to complete a fraud risk assessment questionnaire, sharing anti-fraud tips through various channels, hosting talks and fraud awareness briefings, and organising an anti-fraud short film contest. The university also encourages students to participate in anti-fraud activities in the Guangdong-Macao In-Depth Cooperation Zone in Hengqin. Mok added that UM looks forward to continuing its collaboration with relevant departments to reduce fraud cases and foster a safe campus environment.
In his speech, Sou said that there is a notable decrease in the number of scam cases in the first three quarters of this year compared to the same period last year, demonstrating the success of scam prevention initiatives. He thanked UM for their support in scam prevention. He also emphasised the need for sustained vigilance given that scam tactics are constantly evolving, shifting from government impersonation scams to fake customer service scams recently. The Judiciary Police will continue to work closely with the education sector. Sou also expressed hope that the new cohort of scam prevention ambassadors will leverage peer influence to raise scam awareness on campus.
During the ceremony, two UM students shared their experiences in promoting scam prevention. The event was attended by government officials, UM’s management and college masters, and over 200 faculty and students.
