Legal Disclaimer against fraudulent Schemes
PUBLIC NOTICE
It has come to our attention that the name of the United Bank for Africa (Sierra Leone) Limited (“UBA”) logo and address is being used in attempts to defraud the public through false financial transactions, demand for the payment of non existent taxes/fees and other scams. In some cases UBA Sierra Leone is named as the bank through which certain payments must be made or that must approve the transaction. This type of fraud may be via email, letters, fax or by using a website purporting to be that of UBA.
In order to provide legitimacy to the schemes, the perpetrators send their letters on imitation UBA letterhead with the forged signature of the Managing Director of the Bank, the Chairman of the Bank or other officers of the Bank.
UBA Sierra Leone cautions the public against providing personal information, sending money or disclosing bank details to any person claiming to represent UBA Sierra Leone or to have a relationship with UBA Liberia.
UBA Sierra Leone works closely with all regulatory authorities and law enforcement agencies charged with bringing fraudsters to book in the various countries we operate.
All suspected cases of fraud in which UBA Liberia’s name is used should be reported to us online through info@uba.com.lr and the relevant law enforcement authorities in your home country. You may also notify our Customer Service Desk on (+231)
Members of the public are hereby advised not to send/receive money to/from such scammers, as UBA Sierra Leone will have no liability whatsoever for losses suffered by anyone who falls victim to such scams from fraudsters.
