THE Government Institutions Pension Fund (GIPF) is warning fund members against scammers who are allegedly calling members to solicit personal financial information from them.
“GIPF has come to learn of people pretending to be from the GIPF, who are calling our members, requesting to be provided with personal financial information. This is a scam,” GIPF warned.
GIPF assured that the fund will under no circumstances request for personal information that is not required to pay for services or benefits. Instead, GIPF explained, the fund will always ask its members to submit physical documents at their offices.
“If you get a call from someone who claims to be from the GIPF, call 061 205 1000 or any of our regional offices. Alternatively email us at Info@gipf.com.na,” the fund advised.
