Recently, citizens of Uzbekistan have been encountering scammers using a Telegram bot named “@Muslimakreditbot.” Scammers offer low-interest loan services through this system, requesting personal information, including individuals' personal identification numbers, passport details, bank card numbers, and expiration dates.
Later, they respond positively about loan approval and demand a money transfer to a bank card to start the process. Once the money is received, it becomes impossible to contact the scammers.
The Center has stated that this Telegram bot has no connection with financial institutions in Uzbekistan. Citizens are advised not to share their personal information with unknown individuals.
It is important to be cautious of such scams in the financial sector. Always obtain information from official sources and avoid suspicious offers.
Special attention should be paid to protecting your personal and financial information.
