The Central Bank of Oman (CBO) has issued a cautionary notice to draw the attention of the public to the fact that in recent time there had been an increasing number of attempts of fraud. Such attempts are being made inventively, in different ways, employing subtle means, the notice said.
The Central Bank of Oman stressed that these fraudulent activities, which generally originate from various countries and sources both abroad and local, have, demonstrably, been increasing in recent times. "All citizens and residents are, therefore, requested to take extra pre-cautionary steps and not succumb to the machinations of those who perpetrate such unlawful activities, thereby, assisting the society to avert fraud."
