DHAKA, Sept 21, 2025 (BSS) – The Anti-Corruption Commission (ACC) today urged the public to remain vigilant against a person committing fraud by posing as the private secretary to the ACC chairman.

In a press release, the anti-graft body said several cases of fraud had been committed in the past using the fake identities of the ACC Chairman, Director General, or other officials to settle cases or lure people.

It said that, identifying as the PS to the ACC chairman, the fraudster has been calling individuals and former secretaries, promising exemption from charges or cases.

The release added that legal actions have been taken in such cases, and many members of the fraud ring have been arrested.

The ACC urged everyone not to be deceived through phone calls, messages, or personal communication impersonating ACC officials.

“If anyone receives such phone calls or messages, or learns of any information about fraud and irregularities, they are requested to immediately report to the ACC's toll-free hotline 106,” the release said.

It also urged people to seek assistance from the nearest ACC office or law enforcement agencies.
