Ukrinform
Ambassador of Ukraine to the United States Valeriy Chaly has said that an organized group is engaged in fraud on his behalf, using a fake Facebook account.

"Ukraine's Ambassador in the U.S. is open to the public and appears to attract some attention. This, unfortunately, doesn't always help to serve a decent purpose. For instance, an organized group is trying to use this fact in pursuing their obviously crooked goals. Using a fake Facebook messenger account they are in contact with a number of Americans offering employment," he wrote on Facebook, UNIAN news agency reports.

 According to Chaly, the final purpose remains unclear but obviously it is a fraud.

"I would also like to stress that I do not have any other account besides this one. Thank to all of my friends for attention and support," Chaly added.
