During times of crisis, some people pretending to be humanitarian workers, bank employees, or claiming to work for UNHCR or WFP may offer to support you at withdrawal points (ATMs and MTO). They may then ask you for a fee in exchange for their assistance.
Always remember, humanitarian assistance is free of charge.
You should not pay any fees to access your assistance. If anyone asks you for money, sexual favours, or any favour or service in exchange for assistance, please report it immediately.
