Multiple variants of financial scam letters purporting to be sanctioned by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) or authored by high ranking IMF officials are in circulation.
Scam letters may appear on official letterhead containing the IMF logo and instruct potential victims to request a “Certificate of International Capital Transfer” or other approvals to receive large sums of money as beneficiaries.
Contact e-mail information provided by scammers is always BOGUS, and unsuspecting individuals are requested to send personal banking details that scammers then use for fraudulent activities.
