Beware of Fictitious Offers/Lottery Winnings/Cheap Fund Offers: RBI

The Reserve Bank of India has, today once again clarified that remittance in any

form towards participation in lottery schemes is prohibited under the Foreign Exchange

Management Act, 1999. Further, these restrictions are applicable also to remittances

for participation in lottery-like schemes functioning under different names, such as,

money circulation scheme or remittances for the purpose of securing prize money /

awards, etc. The Reserve Bank has clarified that it neither maintains any account in the

name of individuals / companies / trusts in India to hold funds for disbursal nor does it

allow individuals to open an account to deposit money with the Reserve Bank. It also

does not issue any certificates or advices or confirmations, evidencing receipt and

holding of money in these accounts.

The Reserve Bank has advised the public not to remit or deposit money in such

accounts in response to fictitious offers/representations. The public may immediately

bring the details of such offers to the notice of local police authorities for booking the

culprits.

The Reserve Bank advice came in the wake of many residents falling prey to

such tempting offers and losing money in the recent past.

The Reserve Bank of India has, on several occasions in the past, cautioned the

members of public not to fall prey to fictitious offers / lottery winnings / remittance of

cheap funds in foreign currency from abroad by certain foreign entities / individuals,

including Indian residents acting as representatives of such entities / individuals. These

offers are generally made through letters, e-mails, mobile phones, SMSs, etc.

The Reserve Bank of India has stated that in addition to the typical modalities

adopted in the past, the fraudsters have now resorted to issuing certificates, letters,

circulars, etc., on letterhead that looks like that of the Reserve Bank of India’s and

purportedly signed by its executives / senior officials to make such offers look genuine.

The fraudsters also convince the victims by impersonating as senior officials of the

Reserve Bank with telephone numbers and/or fictitious e-mail IDs. Many fraudsters

have even opened accounts with banks in India and advised public to deposit money in

these accounts towards various charges, taxes, duties, etc. Once the money is

deposited in their account, people mailing such offers withdraw the money and then

vanish. The victim thus loses the money already paid.

The Reserve Bank has also urged members of public to read the ticker on the

Reserve Bank’s website (www.rbi.org.in) for details.
