Beware of fake army men seeking money: ISPR

The military today advised to remain alert against frauds who are identifying themselves as army officers and seeking financial assistance from candidates.

Inter Service Public Relations (ISPR) released a press release in this regard stating clearly that there are no ties between them and the armed forces.

“A fraud gang identifying themselves as army officers deputed on the election field are trying to obtain personal gains using the army’s reputation,” it said.

Some dishonest persons identify themselves as army officers are demanding money from election contenders over phone, promising them to provide different facilities, said the press release signed by ISPR Assistant Director Mohammad Reza-ul-Karim Shammi.

The law enforcers have arrested some of the fake army officers, the release added.

The ISPR has also requested all concerned to remain cautious against them.
