BCC issues warning against financial fraud using director's name for fake training project
Staff Correspondent
The Bangladesh Computer Council (BCC) has issued a stern public warning on Tuesday regarding a fraudulent syndicate circulating fake training notices, letters, and fabricated documents under the name of the BCC Director (Training and Development).
The scammers have been attempting to extort money from individuals and institutions by offering false promises of participation in a nonexistent project titled "Modernization of Urban and Rural Life in Bangladesh through Information Technology."
According to the BCC, the fraudulent activities came to the organization's attention recently, prompting authorities to advise all government offices and the general public to remain vigilant against such scams.
The council clarified that all official training programs and associated financial transactions conducted by the BCC strictly follow authorized and established procedures. The BCC does not charge any fees or collect money from trainees under any project.
Emphasizing that the organization bears no responsibility for unauthorized financial transactions, the BCC strongly urged everyone to refrain from engaging in any monetary exchanges with unverified individuals or entities falsely claiming affiliation with the council.
