ZimTrade Warns Public Against Fraudulent Social Media Pages Impersonating the Organization

ZimTrade, the national trade development and promotion organization of Zimbabwe, has issued a public advisory alerting citizens to the emergence of fraudulent social media pages and groups impersonating both the organization and its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Allan T. Majuru.

A particular entity, operating under the name “Zimbabwean Pride Trading” on platforms such as Facebook and WhatsApp, is falsely representing itself as ZimTrade. These fraudulent accounts are soliciting money from unsuspecting individuals under the guise of a profit-making program.
