BEWARE
OF FRAUDULENT COMMERCIAL DOCUMENTS
05
July 2011
The
Anti-Money Laundering Council warns the public against fraudulent
commercial documents which are being sold or traded by individuals or
companies and which are allegedly issued, secured or guaranteed by the
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) or the then Central Bank of the
Philippines.
These
spurious documents include Safekeeping Receipts, Certificate of Gold
Bullion Depository Stocks, Trust Account Deposits and Land Bank Capital
Bonds with Interim Certificates covering substantial amounts of money.
The BSP does not issue, secure, or guarantee such types of documents.
The
BSP has consistently advised the public that the original of the
alleged documents, if existing, have not been issued by the BSP or the
then Central Bank of the Philippines to any person, corporation, or
entity for value, as to form a basis of a valid claim against the
Government of the Republic of the Philippines or its fiscal agents.
