DGT Affirms The NPWP NIK Matching Process Not Through Links Or Third Party Applications

JAKARTA - The Directorate General of Taxes (DGT) of the Ministry of Finance reminded the public to be careful of fraud on behalf of the beliax System.

Director of Counseling, Services, and Public Relations of DGT, Rosmauli, appealed to the public to be careful of the rampant fraud on behalf of the Directorate General of Taxes.

"We deeply regret that there are still parties who take advantage of public trust with the NPWP NIK matching mode through private messages on WhatsApp," he told VOI, October 29.

Rosmauli emphasized that DGT has never asked for data through private messages, unofficial links, or third-party applications.

"The procurement of NIK and NPWP is indeed an official DGT program, but has never been done through private messages, unofficial links, or applications outside the DGT's property," he said.

According to Rosmauli, the NPWP NIK matching is indeed an official DGT program, but the official process is only carried out through the website www.pajak.go.id or directly at the Tax Service Office (KPP) by bringing ID cards and NPWP.

"The correct process is only through the website www.pajak.go.id or directly at the Tax Service Office by bringing ID cards and NPWP," he explained.

In addition, he added that the public was also reminded not to click or reply to suspicious messages, and immediately confirm to the 1500 200 Tax Kring or report to the nearest KPP if they received a doubtful message.

"We invite the public to be more careful and wise in maintaining personal data. Do not easily believe messages or calls asking for sensitive data, especially if accompanied by suspicious links. If you receive a message like that, don't click, don't reply, and immediately confirm to the 1500 200 Tax Cring or report it to the nearest KPP," he added.

According to him, public awareness is the main key and ensure that tax information is always obtained only from the official DGT channel.

"If in doubt, first verify before acting. Let's work together to maintain the security of personal data and remind each other so that no one else becomes a victim of fraud," he said.

Previously, through uploads on the Instagram account @HELsims, he shared his experience as a victim of online fraud. The scam occurred after he received a WhatsApp message claiming to have come from a tax agency, related to matching NIK with NPWP via beliax.

"Good afternoon, I Safira would like to inform you about your data on taxation that has not carried out blackouts or synchronization," the video he showed.

Although the victim replied that she had done matching, the person still said that the data had not been recorded in the system.

"On September 3, 2025 yesterday I received wa who admitted that from the tax agency he wanted to inform you about the matching of NIK with NPWP in the coretax and djp. He knows all my data starts from both of my cellphone numbers, at first I was suspicious but because he already knew my data, yes I did," he explained.

The victim then followed the instructions of individuals during a telephone conversation, namely the perpetrator asked the victim to download the fake M-Pajak application which turned out to be able to access all the data on the victim's cellphone, including financial applications such as GoPay Borrowing, Shopee Borrowing, and Bank Jago.

"It turned out that after that I was called and according to what he asked to start from installing the M-Pajak app which when he entered the app and chose to join as in the image I shared, what appeared was only a circle with the words (if I'm not mistaken) verification and then a progress rate with percent, and during the conversation that occurred on the cellphone screen several times asked for facial verification and fingerprints which turned out to be able to mirror into other devices and access all my cellphones including the GoPay Borrowing app, Shopee Borrowing and Bank Jago," he said.

After about an hour, the victim realized that he had become a victim of a scam and the perpetrator managed to withdraw the loan and made several transactions from the victim's Jago Bank account, with a total loss of Rp53,170,025.
