Fraud Attempts Targeting Our Exporters

Dear Member,
With reference to the letter sent to our Chamber by TOBB, in the letter dated 27.09.2024 and numbered 101216315 received from the Ministry of Trade and forwarded to our Union; The referenced letter, a copy of which is submitted in the annex, states, with reference to a letter received from the Commercial Counsellor's Office in Baghdad, that it has been understood that Turkish exporters have been contacted using the fake institution names whose details are given in the letter.

The letter further recommends that our companies be cautious against such persons or institutions claiming to act on behalf of the State of Iraq and to be official institutions, and that they contact the Commercial Counsellor's Office in Baghdad when necessary.

I kindly request your information and the necessary action regarding the announcement to your relevant members and, if needed, the referral of your members to the Commercial Counsellor's Office in Baghdad ([email protected]) for additional information.
