Peru Officials Debunk Viral Fake Bonuses, Warn of No 'Universal Family Bonus 2026' or DNI Links

Authorities direct the public to official .gob.pe portals to prevent phishing schemes tied to fabricated subsidies.

Overview

  • Midis and the PCM state there is no Bono Familiar Universal 2026, no bonus for people under 60, no Bono Hombre 2025, and no official DNI consultation links.
  • El Tiempo and La Hora report that claims of a November 2025 “Bono de 350 soles” are false and lack any government authorization or decree.
  • The MEF confirms there is no budgetary or legal basis for a new universal payment, noting any future subsidy would require a formal decree published in El Peruano.
  • The PNP and its cybercrime unit Divindat warn that circulating links are fraudulent, stressing that real government pages end in .gob.pe and do not request passwords or bank data.
  • Authorities advise victims to change passwords, contact their banks, and file reports with Divindat or the Ministerio Público, while legitimate programs like Pensión 65, Juntos, Contigo and FISE remain in force with official consultation channels.
