Bank of Mauritius

Bank of Mauritius was referenced in an unsolicited email that we received. This email appears to be fraudulent or bogus. Bank of Mauritius, based in Port Louis, is almost certainly not involved nor likely to approve the use of its name in the e-mail. Scammers often use the names of real banks to make their claims seem legitimate. If you get an e-mail that is similar to one in our collection, you should ignore it. Do not contact anyone listed on the email and especially do not give out personal information such as your birthdate, social security number or bank account. Never pay any fees of any kind. If you are victimized by the fraud, there is little that you can do. You may want to visit other sites to learn more.
