Ministry of Primary and Mass Education warns about fake financial incentives

DHAKA, Sept 5, 2025 (BSS) - Ministry of Primary and Mass Education has warned people about fraud, saying the issue of providing financial incentives from the ministry is completely baseless and fabricated.

They are calling various officials on WhatsApp, pretending to be the secretary, and asking for credit card and bank account information from the officials by luring them with financial incentives from the ministry's advisor.
 
The ministry said that if anyone is asked for any sensitive information, including credit card and bank account information, in this regard, it has been requested not to provide it.
 
In addition, it has been advised to avoid contacting anyone from any number in this regard. In addition, if you receive any such call, you have been requested not to be confused and to file a complaint with the Ministry of Primary and Mass Education or the nearest police station.
