JAKARTA – PT Bank Rakyat Indonesia (Persero) Tbk (BBRI) has issued an official statement regarding the rise of fraudulent acts under the guise of investment which have recently emerged in the community. One of the highlights is the Binomo platform.
BRI Corporate Secretary Aestika Oryza Gunarto revealed that the company does not have direct cooperation with Binomo regarding the provision of payment channels using BRI Virtual Accounts (BRIVA) and BRI Internet Banking.
"The company will continue to monitor and trace further to partners. Our customers urge us to be careful in providing personal data, including the BRI Internet Banking user ID and password in any application," he said in an official statement quoted on Wednesday, February 9.
Aestika's statement is in line with the statement from the Chairman of the Investment Alert Task Force (OJK) Tongam L Tobing who said that Binomo is an illegal activity in Indonesia because it does not have a permit as a commodity futures broker in Indonesia.
