Amid the new measures introduced by the Lula government, it is common for potential financial releases to attract the attention of Brazilians. Unfortunately, this interest ends up attracting cybercriminals who deceive people with false news about payments. One example is the rumor of an emergency withdrawal of up to R$ 3,000.

In reality, the rumor is just a scam. According to the Boatos.org website, the message spreading online suggests that the current government released a withdrawal of up to R$ 3,065.70 for anyone who used a credit card between 2018 and 2022.
Fake course to withdraw money authorized by the Lula government
The tactic used by the scammers is intriguing. According to the news, to obtain the money, interested parties would have to complete a course called “Saquemoney”. The link to this supposed tutorial also appears in the message.
A quick search for “saquemoney.online” on Google did not reveal any website. In addition, when researching the alleged emergency withdrawal opportunity, we did not find any genuine information confirming this special release by the government.
BC forgotten money return fuels story
As highlighted by Boatos.org, this money withdrawal story gained momentum with the return of the Central Bank’s Receivables System, which has an official website. It is also possible to find complaints on Reclame Aqui about the alleged course, showing that the rumor is not new.
Therefore, there is no possibility of taking a course to recover the money, and the story is not even true. Although it may seem tempting, users should be suspicious of offers that are too good to be true, as this is one of the main signs of a scam.
