KUWAIT CITY, June 5: An expatriate was scammed and lost KWD 400 from his bank account. In a report filed at a police station in the Ahmadi Governorate, the victim stated that he received a phone call from someone claiming to be a Kuwaiti citizen working for a government agency. The caller requested that he update his personal information and asked for his civil ID and bank card numbers.
Shortly after providing the details, the expatriate received a message from his bank notifying him that KWD 400 had been withdrawn from his account. Alarmed, he immediately contacted the bank and had his account deactivated to prevent further unauthorized transactions.
A case has been registered and referred to the appropriate authorities for further investigation.
