Ammon News - AMMONNEWS - The Criminal Investigation Department (CID) has warned citizens to avoid fraud while exchanging US dollars from the so called 'black market', which is below the market price.

In a statement issued on Sunday, CID said that despite repeated warnings to raise awareness and avoid falling victim to fraudulent practices, some people still get defrauded.

"Those who claim to own dollars less than the market price, delude the victim by the willingness of being super-rich super-fast, as they display real money to be examined and confirmed, to be found later and when buying those dollars, that either they are white papers or forged," the statement added, urging citizens to immediately report those fraudulent to the nearest police station or by calling 911.
