NEW DELHI: NSE Clearing Ltd, a subsidiary of the National Stock Exchange (NSE), has issued a warning to investors and clearing members about fake communications that falsely claim to unfreeze accounts or demand funds directly from individuals.
These counterfeit circulars, misusing NSE Clearing’s logo and letterhead, have been circulating with requests for payments from investors, allegedly to resolve frozen investment accounts.
The fraudulent notices also include misleading links, raising concerns that they are part of a scam targeting unsuspecting investors, NSE Clearing said in a statement.
The clearing firm clarified that it never issues communications requesting funds or offering to unfreeze accounts. Investors are advised not to respond to these deceptive messages or click on any suspicious links.
NSE Clearing stressed that all legitimate communication is made exclusively through its official website. Investors and clearing members should verify any correspondence by visiting the platform before making decisions.
