Saudi Arabian authorities have advised Umrah pilgrims not to bring large sums of cash and expensive items when travelling to the kingdom to perform the lesser pilgrimage.
In a post on Twitter, the Haj and Umrah Ministry advised pilgrims travelling to Saudi Arabia not to bring gold bullion, precious stones and valuable precious metal in general and to carry a maximum of $16,000 in cash.
The government authority also urged worshippers to download bank apps from official sites, not to share bank account details or transfer money to unknown parties, and to ignore text messages from unknown sources.
