Several variants of financial scam letters purporting to be sanctioned by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) or authored by high ranking IMF officials are currently in circulation.
Scam letters may appear on official letterhead containing the IMF logo.
Scam content: instructions to contact the IMF for issuance of a “Certificate of International Capital Transfer” or other forms of approval to enable recipients to receive large sums of monies as beneficiaries.
Scam modus operandi: contact e-mail information is always BOGUS; unsuspecting individuals are requested to send personal banking details which scammers utilize for fraudulent activities.
