According to the Central Bank of Uzbekistan, having trusted the fake employees of the "security service", citizens apply for online loans through banking applications and install malware on their phones, as a result of which they lose both their own funds and the loans they received.

"If you receive messages from unknown accounts with suggestions such as "cancel the loan" or "transfer money to a secure account," do not contact, block the user and do not install malicious (APK) applications," the Central Bank said in a statement.

The Central Bank of Uzbekistan also reminds that the bank does not provide loans to individuals and does not provide any financial services!
