An organized fraud ring is targeting the public by using the name and photograph of the National Board of Revenue (NBR) Chairman, Abdur Rahman Khan. In an urgent press release issued Thursday, the NBR warned that scammers are using fake WhatsApp profiles to solicit money and mislead service recipients.

According to the NBR, these fraudsters skillfully impersonate the Chairman to demand illegal payments under various pretexts. This is not the first attempt; the ring previously hacked the Chairman's personal mobile number and attempted similar identity theft. A General Diary (GD) has already been filed at Sher-e-Bangla Police Station regarding these recurring incidents.

The NBR has instructed its officials and employees to remain vigilant. Legal action is currently underway. The authorities have requested the public to remain cautious and avoid falling into these financial traps.
