KARACHI: The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has lodged a complaint with the authorities of Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) against unscrupulous elements over email scam created in the name of SBP’s governor, a statement said on Tuesday.
The central bank said email scam from a fake email address created in the name of the SBP governor Ashraf Wathra was in circulation, suggesting that the recipient has received a large sum of money from a foreign government.
“To the benefit of public, the SBP clarifies that such email has not been issued by any person, including the governor in person, his office or the SBP, and that this is an attempt to defraud the general public and defame and malign the institution,” the central bank said.
“Taking legal recourse against such unscrupulous elements, the SBP has already lodged a complaint with the FIA authorities in Karachi,” the statement added.
