The Sindh police have launched a crackdown on a surge of fake online accounts impersonating the department. Sindh Inspector General of Police (IGP) Ghulam Nabi Memon has written to FIA seeking immediate action against these fraudulent accounts.
A total of 97 fake accounts, including websites, WhatsApp groups, and social media profiles, have been identified. The IGP expressed concern that these fake accounts could mislead the public and potentially be used for scams.
In his letter to FIA and IGP emphasized that the fake accounts have no affiliation with the Sindh police and urged the agency to remove them from platforms like Facebook, TikTok, and others. The Sindh police will pursue legal action against those responsible once the fake accounts are taken down.
