Mexico's National Commission for the Protection and Defense of Financial Services Users has detected possible identity impersonation involving KARIX, S.A. de C.V., SOFOM, E.N.R. Unknown individuals have used the financial institution’s name and tax information to offer mortgage loans and demand advance payments from prospective borrowers. Consumers should not transfer funds to personal accounts or pay money before signing a formal contract with the financial institution. They should treat requests to pay in advance to release, process or activate a loan as potential fraud, verify the institution and its details through CONDUSEF’s SIPRES registry, and confirm any offer directly through the institution’s official channels.
