The Central Bank says that there has recently been a rapid increase in complaints made regarding defrauding people of money by giving false information through fraudulent phone calls, text messages, e-mail messages and social media networks.
According to the Central Bank, these fraudulent phone calls, text messages and e-mails are coming, promising to direct them to foreign jobs or asking them to pay customs duties to receive parcels containing various valuable goods.
As a result, the Central Bank requests people not to deposit money into the bank accounts of unknown parties or remit money through other means based on the above information without proper verification.
