The Ministry of the Interior has issued a cautionary alert regarding the surge in fraudulent activities targeting individuals.
These scams involve deceiving people into transferring or depositing agreed-upon funds during buying and selling transactions through counterfeit “electronic payment” messages. Notably, these sums are not actually deposited into legitimate bank accounts.
In a recent announcement posted on its official social networking platform “X,” the Ministry urged citizens and residents to exercise vigilance. It emphasized the importance of confirming that the agreed-upon amounts of money are indeed deposited.
Individuals are advised to verify transactions by checking their bank accounts, receiving confirmation text messages from the bank, or personally visiting the nearest branch.
