Third parties and their representatives are mostly dismissed Bank officials who have previous knowledge of your payment while in service thereby using that opportunity to extort huge amount of money from you in pretence to pay you or help you secure payment. Even when you deal with them in the next ten (10) years, they cannot pay you. They rather give you excuses,and each time you make one payment, they will ask you for more. They have no legitimate power to pay you and cannot pay you. They committed fraud and were dismissed from! service and now in a hide-out.
For this reason, the Anti-Corruption Bill was passed by the President in which Section 10, Sub-section 4, takes care of this people.
