Fraudulent website: www.dasxin.com

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) wishes to alert members
of the public in Hong Kong to a fraudulent website with the domain
name "www.dasxin.com". The
website looks very similar to the official website of The Dah Sing
Bank Limited (DSB). DSB has issued a press release today to clarify
that both DSB and the Dah Sing Financial Group have no connection
with the fraudulent website.

DSB has reported the case to the Hong Kong Police Force for
further investigation. Anyone who has dealings with this fraudulent
website, or has conducted any transactions through the website
should contact any local Police Station or the Commercial Crime
Bureau of the Hong Kong Police Force at 2860 5012 and DSB at 2507
8000.
