Dubai radio personality Kris Fade has issued a Kris Fade scam warning to UAE residents after personally receiving a fraudulent call — and he wasted no time taking to social media to sound the alarm.

The host of The Kris Fade Show on 104.4 Virgin Radio Dubai shared a video urging the public to remain cautious when receiving unexpected calls or messages, warning that multiple scam attempts are actively circulating across the UAE.

Multiple UAE Scam Calls Circulating Right Now

The radio host highlighted that multiple scam attempts are currently circulating, urging people to stay vigilant and verify any suspicious communication before responding.

He cautioned followers not to provide personal information, bank details, or any sensitive data to unknown callers or online contacts — regardless of how official they may sound.

Why Celebrity Voices Matter for Digital Safety

Public awareness campaigns and reminders from well-known personalities often help cut through the noise, particularly when scammers attempt to exploit uncertainty or current events.

Fade's warning serves as a timely reminder for all UAE residents to remain cautious, rely only on official channels when dealing with requests involving personal data, and immediately hang up on any caller asking for sensitive information.

His clear advice: if you receive an unexpected call asking for personal or financial details, do not engage — hang up and report it.
