Central bank of Barbados says none of its officers is involved in transaction scam
It has come to the attention of the Central Bank that an email purporting to be sent by an officer of the Bank has been circulating. This email seeks the assistance of the recipient in fraudulently transferring large sums of cash to the recipient's bank account. This is a classic form of confidence fraud sometimes termed a 411/419 scam.
Neither the Central Bank nor any of its officers or employees is party or privy to such transactions and is not the author of the said email. Recipients of such emails should immediately disregard and delete them.
