How to Report Illegal Massage Cards to the Dubai Police

We dislike them, we avoid them, and here's how we can report them.

As a UAE resident, chances are you have spotted these; calling cards depicting images of scantily dressed women with contact details of a massage or spa centre. These cards are usually found littered on the ground or tucked into car windows by passerbys.

The massage card menace has been a frequent problem for many neighbourhoods in the Emirate, with residents strongly warned against contacting these massage calling cards.

Brigadier Abdullah Khadem Suroor Al Maasem, Director of the Bur Dubai Police Station and Chairman of the Board of Directors of Police Stations, says that unlicensed massage centres are a front for criminal activities.

According to the Dubai Police, the centres operate by deceiving victims seeking out their services, resulting in extortion and blackmail.

If you see these cards on the street or spot someone distributing them, here is how you can report illegal massage cards to the Dubai Police.
