In order to disseminate anti-telephone deception messages to all walks of life, the Regional Crime Prevention Office of Kowloon East (RCPO KE) invited Dr Ko Wing-man to film a video to educate the public, particularly the elderly, on the modus operandi of telephone deception. Dr Ko alerted the public that there were victims who had given their bank account details to fraudsters and consequently lost all their savings. As such, Dr Ko appealed to the public to stay vigilant and not to disclose any personal information such as online banking information to suspicious callers.

The video was sent to stakeholders for circulation among their members and staff as well as for posting on social media platforms. The video has also been broadcast at various locations in the Region, including medical centres, commercial buildings, shopping malls and outside the Wong Tai Sin Temple.
