The Minerals Commission has issued a warning about people pretending to be officials. These impostors are sending fraudulent emails.
They are targeting people involved in Ghana's mining sector. The scammers aim to get money and sensitive information under false pretences.
The commission has received reports of these schemes.
Individuals are using fake identities to solicit funds.
This activity is a direct impersonation of Minerals Commission staff.
The public is urged to be cautious of such communications.
They should verify any requests for money or information directly with the commission.
This warning comes as part of efforts to protect stakeholders in the mining industry.
