PANews April 21 news, according to Jin Shi citing Al Jazeera, the Greek maritime risk management company MARISKS warned that unidentified individuals are impersonating Iranian authorities sending messages to some shipping companies, requesting payment of transit fees in cryptocurrency in exchange for permission to safely pass through the Strait of Hormuz. The company stated: “These specific messages are scams; these emails were not sent by Iranian authorities.” MARISKS indicated that, to its knowledge, at least one ship that attempted to sail out of the strait and was attacked by gunfire fell victim to this scam on Saturday. Due to Iran re-blocking the Strait of Hormuz in response to the U.S. blockade of its ports, currently, hundreds of ships and about 20,000 sailors are stranded in the Gulf region, unable to pass through.
