Kazakhstan: National Bank warns about fake delivery and eGov calls

On 28 September 2026, the National Bank of Kazakhstan described a scheme starting with a supposed courier asking for an SMS delivery code.

A subsequent caller impersonates eGov and claims that the recipient’s account has been compromised. Fraudsters create urgency, threaten consequences and discourage seeking help.

The regulator advises reading messages carefully, never sharing codes with third parties and ending suspicious calls. Claims should be checked by independently calling the organisation’s official number.
