Fake ‘Minister Hayward’ TikTok Account
The Ministry of Economy and Labour advised “that a fraudulent TikTok account has been created using the name and image of the Minister of Economy and Labour Jason Hayward.”
A Government spokesperson said, “The account in question, located here, is not authorised, endorsed, or operated by Minister Hayward or the Ministry. It was created to mislead the public by impersonating the Minister.
“Minister Hayward does not have a TikTok account and any content posted under this profile should be regarded as false and misleading.”
Minister Hayward said, “It is deeply concerning that someone would attempt to impersonate a public official to deceive others. I urge everyone to be vigilant and verify social media accounts’ authenticity before engaging with them.”
The Government spokesperson said, “The public is reminded to rely only on official information and advisories from the Government of Bermuda’s official communication section, the Department of Communications.”

Key government websites, like the Bermuda Pension site for example, do not use https. Therefore they are extremely vulnerable to hacking. The Bermuda Government Pension website does not even have basic security.
Another example of how Bermuda is being badly mismanaged.
