Watch out for scams posing as the Kanta Services and MyKanta!

There are a lot of scam messages in circulation at the moment claiming to be from the Kanta Services or MyKanta, but in fact these messages seek to redirect users to fake websites. You can come across scams in email messages, on social media or search engines. Criminals may also try to contact you with text messages, phone calls, or WhatsApp messages.

For security reasons, sensitive information such as personal identity codes should never be sent by email. The Kanta Services will never contact users by email or text message to ask for their information.

It is safe to use the MyKanta when you log in to the service at www.kanta.fi. Users should never log in to MyKanta via a link contained in an email or text message or listed in search results.
