The Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) has asked people to beware of swindlers selling sacrificial animals on social media, reported 24NewsHD TV channel on Saturday.

The Agency has informed people that some fraudsters are selling animals on Facebook and WhatsApp at cheaper rates, and that they should not fall prey to their modus operandi.

According to spokesman for the FIA, people send money to these imposters through easypaisa. “They have to pay additional amounts to them for home delivery. Then these persons, after collecting money in advance, send to customers pictures of animals they have booked on WhatsApp,” the spokesman said, adding, “The purpose of disseminating this information is to stop online fraud by creating awareness in people.”
