The IMF warns that several variants of financial scam letters purporting to be sanctioned by the IMF or authored by high ranking IMF officials are currently in circulation.
Scam letters instruct potential victims to contact the IMF for issuance of a “Certificate of International Capital Transfer” or other forms of approval to enable them to receive large sums of monies as beneficiaries.
Contact e-mail information in these scam letters is always bogus; unsuspecting individuals are then requested to send personal banking details which the scammers utilize for fraudulent activities.

The Departmental African Paper Series covers research on sub-Saharan Africa conducted by IMF staff, particularly on issues of broad regional or cross-country interest.
