A fake letter bearing the name of the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) is misleading people into believing that they must pay a refundable tax to receive a pending payment of Rs 1 lakh. The letter falsely claims that the amount is being held due to a transaction failure and promises to release the money immediately after a payment of Rs 7,500 is made. The Press Information Bureau's (PIB) Fact Check unit has flagged the letter as fake and urged the public not to fall for such scams.
What does the fake letter bearing the RBI’s name claim?
