Scammers are mastering new schemes of deception!
Be vigilant!
With the rapid development of digital technologies, citizens are gaining wider access to government, financial and other electronic services via the Internet. However, at the same time, methods and methods of crimes in the field of online fraud are actively developing. We ask you to be especially careful - scammers actively use the capabilities of rapidly developing artificial intelligence, creating videos, audio recordings and images in which people's faces and voices are replaced with real ones. For example, false commercials with advertisements and offers to invest their savings in various bonds, stocks and financial transactions are periodically distributed on social networks.  By exerting psychological pressure and using citizens' trust in official structures, fraudsters can pose as employees of government agencies, banks, law enforcement agencies, telecom operators and other organizations, including the Unified Accumulative Pension Fund, in order to gain access to personal and financial information. 
In this regard, UAPF JSC recalls that the National Bank (NBK) is engaged in investing pension assets. He acts as a trustee of pension savings, investing them in various financial instruments in accordance with the Investment Declaration approved by the Government. In addition to the NBRK, investment portfolio managers (IPMS) can participate in the management of pension assets, to whom part of the savings can be transferred. The transfer to the UIP can be made only through the portal of JSC "UAPF", no intermediaries are needed for this. 
Also, for your safety and fraud prevention, UAPF JSC reminds you:
• Pension payments are processed without intermediaries and commissions.;
• The UAPF does not charge fees for the provision of services, and all payments are made strictly according to the law;
• Targeted use of savings for housing and medical treatment is carried out only through authorized operators (second-tier banks);
• Employees of government agencies, banks, law enforcement agencies, telecom operators and the UAPF never request personal data, bank card details, SMS codes and other confidential information by phone, e-mail or via messengers;
• If callers address you by your first name and patronymic and know your residential address and place of work, this does not mean that these people are officials. There are different ways to get all the necessary data.
• Employees of UAPF JSC do not participate in various videos with offers of transfer, investment of their savings, as well as purchases of any shares and financial instruments. 
The UAPF strongly recommends receiving information from official sources and
acting exclusively in the legal field.
