Be warned about an active impersonation scam using the name **"Abiola Bawuah"**—a real Ghanaian banking executive—to target people via email.**What we're seeing:**- Emails sent from unrelated free addresses (e.g., **zerahiwr@gmail.com**)—**not** from any official bank domain.- Messages claiming "confidential," "urgent," or "inheritance/fund" matters.- Sender IPs traced to **dynamic mobile networks** (e.g., 154.160.17.68, associated with MTN Ghana subscribers)—not corporate banking infrastructure.- The real Abiola Bawuah (former CEO of UBA Africa) would **never** contact strangers from a personal Gmail account.**Why this matters:**This scam has been reported for years, and fraudsters reuse the same name and script. If you've dealt with a similar "Abiola" before, stay alert—this is likely the same playbook.**✅ What to do:**1. **Do NOT reply**—replying confirms your address is active.2. **Do NOT click links or open attachments.**3. **Do NOT send money or personal information**, no matter how urgent the request seems.4. **Verify independently**—contact the bank through its official website, never through details in the email.5. **Mark as spam and report** to your email provider.**Remember:** A familiar name is not proof of identity. Always check the email address, not just the display name.Please share this post to help protect others. Stay safe! 🔒See More
