Secretary for Security Chris Tang posted a video on social media revealing that he received a suspected scam call in which the caller claimed to be a Security Bureau staff member and asked him to go to the 10th floor of Government Headquarters to verify his identity and assist in an investigation. He asked which team the caller belonged to and said he was already on the 10th floor, telling the caller to come find him.
