The Bankers Association of Trinidad and Tobago (BATT) is distancing itself from what it describes as false information being shared on Social Media.
The Association issued a Scam Alert Advisory on Wednesday about an Instagram account claiming partnership with commercial banks in Trinidad and Tobago in an attempt to solicit funds from unsuspecting individuals.
BATT says this is a scam and its member banks have given no approval to anyone to act on their behalf with respect to any proposed investment scheme.
BATT is asking that these various entities or persons to desist from placing BATT and its member banks’ logos on their ads.
