Palau Investment Bank is warning the public about scams and fraud using the Bank's name or claiming to be a member of staff for the Bank or of its shareholder in attempts to fraudulently obtain money, property by making a proposal for selling bank shares of PIB.

If you receive any suspicious communications using the Bank's name or claiming to be a member of staff via phone, e-mail, in person, or by other means, please report this to the Bank or the nearest police station or your local law enforcement agency.
