The most common scam types in Lithuania for private customers

Fake employers

Fake job offer scams are still active. Scammers will pretend to be bank employees, call and offer a job based on advertisements posted by those looking for work. To pretend to verify your identity, the caller asks you to open a bank account and pass on your online banking login details. We have also identified a scheme where the scammers call the victim via video call and ask them to show their ID documents to the camera. In this manner, the scammers gain access to the victim’s information, and the account is used as a transit account to transfer money scammed from other people, while passport information is used to apply for loans etc. You must be careful when posting job-seeking advertisements. Remember that your account access data should be known only by you, and bank employees will never ask for it.
