The alert focuses on a website that mimics the appearance of the company Raykong, a legitimate distributor of travel items. Cybercriminals use a link containing the word 'Raykongdgt' to simulate authenticity, exploiting the mandatory nature of V-16 beacons for most vehicles in Spain.
To build trust, the design of the fake website includes supposed product homologation and logos of official bodies such as the Dirección General de Tráfico (DGT). The agency warns that users who have purchased the device will not receive it, but will only get subsequent messages about shipping delays.
It is recommended to exercise extreme caution when purchasing V-16 beacons and acquire them only through official stores to avoid becoming a victim of fraud.
This new case is part of the exponential growth of cybercrime in Spain, which, according to the Crime Balance for the third quarter of 2025, accounts for 17.5% of all recorded crime. Computer fraud has increased by 488.3% in just nine years.
In the event of being scammed, the Cybersecurity Agency advises immediately calling the bank to deactivate cards. If the financial institution failed to apply the mandatory two-factor authentication process at the time of payment (PIN, biometric factor, or password), the victim may claim a refund of the amount.
