Please Advice. to proceed to the next step. Thanks and Best Regards
The answer to these questions is: no and no.
1. Never trust any e-mail that prompts you to give banking information. No bank will ask you for such data per e-mail.
2. KAS BANK is in no way affiliated with ING Bank.
New activity from KAS Bank International
This is the text of a fraudulent email. Everything is a lie: there is no KAS Bank International UK, this email is not from the Indian Reserve Bank, there is no mr Malekula, and first and foremost:
DO NOT BELIEVE SOMEONE IS GOING TO PAY YOU MILLIONS OF DOLLARS JUST LIKE THAT!
NOT EVEN IF YOU PAY RIDICULOUS CHARGES LIKE THE "TRANSFER CONNECTIVITY CHARGE" MENTIONED IN THIS EMAIL.

Unfortunately, some people are easily fooled by scammers who use the text quoted above to attract their "customers".
Fake entry "KAS BANK" on tradeboss.com
Sometimes scammers fool Business-to-Business platforms like tradeboss.com and get an entry for another company's name. This is the case with the entry for KAS BANK on tradeboss.com:
The same entry is found on africa.tradeholding.com, which is in fact the same website as tradeboss.com. So is gulfbusiness.tradeholding.com.
Through such entries scammers try to convince investors they are a banking institution ready and willing to provide them with huge loans - on the sole condition that the victim will pay upfront fees. These fees can easily amount to tens of thousands of dollars. The loan, it will be clear, is never made available. The transaction ends as soon as the victim has paid the upfront fees.
Here is a quote from someone who found the false entry on tradeboss.com:
I personally have not any damage through these criminals. I don't accept to pay any sort of up front fee. Up to know, I have received many same/similar proposals which usually come from web based e-mail accounts such as hotmail, yahoo.com, gmail, etc.
Anybody with a little Internet education should now how companies establish their official sites and arrange for e-mail address for their employees - certainly not through free services as hotmail! There is plenty of facts in such proposals to make one suspicious.
I advise everybody to search the net and checking who is who. Otherwise, I am asking for official appointment and you can imagine results!
