These pieces of news have quickly spread on social media, forums, and online exchange groups, targeting important sectors such as energy, banking, transportation and delivery services.
After conducting quick checks and verifications with relevant parties, especially examining the structure of information fields and sample data, the National Cybersecurity Association has determined that these are fake news items with no factual evidence.
More concerning is that some users, lacking vigilance, continue to share and comment on this content, further amplifying information chaos and complicating verification and handling efforts.
Vu Ngoc Son, Head of the Technology Division at the National Cybersecurity Association, said: "Fake news about data leaks at this time is causing relevant agencies and organizations to expend significant effort on checks and verifications, leading to wasted resources."
Fake news on cyberspace involves deliberate activities aimed at undermining the reputation of organizations, causing public panic, and potentially leading to cyber fraud behaviors.

The national cybersecurity association calls on internet users to contribute to building a safe and healthy online environment by rejecting fake news.
