Fake payouts | "Grant from the Muftiate": Scammers use the name of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Kazakhstan

Scammers created the Telegram channel "ҚМДБ — рәсім арнасы" and are presenting it as an official resource of the Spiritual Administration of Muslims of Kazakhstan (SAMK).

The channel publishes fake posts about a supposedly approved "grant from the Muftiate" in the amount of 1 million tenge and then demands payment of a "membership fee" of 35,000 tenge.

After the money is transferred to a personal bank card, the victim receives a forged certificate, but no such grant actually exists.
