Scammers and fraud gangs throughout the world are innovating newer ideas everyday with the nefarious goal of cheating people, and now we are exposing a cartel that claims to be ‘Free Republic of Liberland’, a non-existent country though but it claims to have its own “National Bank” and even currency.
Commenting on the “National Bank” of the so-called “Free Republic of Liberland” Muzaffar Ahmad Noori Bajwa, a strategist on security, politics and international relations, who also is the editor of Eastern Herald said: “Those of us with working experience with governments know, establishing a central bank or national bank is only possible for a legitimate sovereign nation with recognition of the United Nations or whatsoever. An entity without physical existence or even not a tiny office of the so-called country cannot come up with the claim of having its own national bank and certainly it cannot proclaim as free republic. These are simply fraudulent and criminal acts. This funny claim of the so-called Free Republic of Liberland and a so-called national bank of its own reminds me of a similar pattern applied by a scam racket named Bank Bene Merenti, which claims to be the “central bank” of the sovereign order. There is no country named Bene Merenti anywhere in the world. This Bene Merenti is a cooperative society registered in Latvia. Yes, a registered cooperative society can have its own cooperative bank, but this also requires permission granted by the registering nation, in this case Latvia. And, most importantly, any cooperative bank’s jurisdiction is just a town or couple of towns in the respective country only. But, with the fictitious claim of being the so-called central bank of sovereign order of Bene Merenti cooperative society, this illegal Bank Bene Merenti is selling fake cryptocurrency named YEM coin to people despite the fact that this YEM coin has no exchange or trade value. It is just a mere delusion. Similarly, the claim of this so-called Free Republic of Liberland and its “National Bank” is absolutely bogus”.
On a website, scammer behind this bogus ‘Liberland’ scam said:
The EU should regonize [recognize] the Republic of Liberland as sovereign country. This nation formed 6 years ago on the Danube between Croatia and Serbia fulfills every condition of the Montevideo Convention of 1933 which outlined the process of establishing a new country.
Europe stands for a plurality of nations and peoples, while the EU was formed to recognize the diversity of these societies and create collaboration, a common market between them. The more nations within Europe, the greater opportunities there are for Europeans. The freer the markets, the freer the people.
On YouTube, the so-called President of “Liberland” Vit Jeddicka speaks at reinvent money 2015 about his new nation, the challenges and opportunities it faces and the kind of monetary system he envisions for it. And in reality, this Vit Jeddicka is a fraud who is making frantic bids in introducing a new fake cryptocurrency. A stupidly edited video of this fraud would clearly prove his real intention and how he is trying to present himself as a legitimate leader, although even a kindergarten kid would understand – he just leads a big scam racket.
Commenting on “Liberland” Shehzan Memon, crypto analyst told this correspondent, “the pattern of this so-called Liberland sound like a combination of of crypto-scam, MLM, Ponzi and pyramid rackets. A country without any physical existence and even not any address anywhere in the world sounds like they have made certain modification in the classic patterns of scams. A deeper analysis of their activities would prove – this is just the same old scam jinni in a new bottle”.
One of the prominent members of this so-called Liberland is a woman named Zuzana Uchnarova, who claims to be the Ambassador of Liberland in the United Arab Emirates. In UAE, Zuzana does not have any physical address, phone number of whatsoever, including any detailed information on her so-called Liberland Embassy in UAE. Most interestingly website of Liberland, shows the existence of Liberland Embassies or representatives in many countries in Africa, Asia, Oceania, Europe, North America and South America, while most of the names provided as representatives of Liberland are either dubious or false.
For example, Bangladesh representative of Liberland is named as “Rahman Khan”, while our reporters have inquired the matter with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and there is no such existence of anyone named “Rahman Khan” representing any country Liberland. According to Vienna Convention, any foreign country needs permission from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the host country before opening an embassy, appointing a consul general or even appointing a representative.
Talking to this correspondent, an official at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bangladesh said, “What is Liberland? We never heard of existence of any such country anywhere in the world. So, how a non-existent country can claim to have its representative in Bangladesh?”
But the website of this so-called Liberland gives an address of its representative office in Bangladesh, which is: House #10(A), Road #48, Gulshan 2, 1212 Dhaka, Bangladesh.

What is Liberland really?
According to Wikipedia, Liberland, officially the Free Republic of Liberland, is a micronation claiming an uninhabited parcel of disputed land on the western bank of the Danube, between Croatia and Serbia. It was proclaimed on 13 April 2015 by the Czech right-libertarian politician and activist Vít Jedlička.
The official website of Liberland states that the nation was created in the wake of the ongoing Croatia–Serbia border dispute. According to Jedlička, this dispute resulted in a plot of land west of the Danube that was not claimed by either side.
The parcel of land in question is 7 km2 (2.7 sq mi) in area, roughly the same size as Gibraltar. It has been administered by Croatia since the Croatian War of Independence. Liberland has no diplomatic recognition from any recognized nation. The land lacks infrastructure and lies on the floodplain of the Danube.
Purported currency Liberland merit (cryptocurrency). Calling code +422 (proposed).
According to UK newspaper The Independent, when he plunged a flag into the banks of the Danube and declared the birth of the Free Republic of Liberland, Vit Jedlicka was dismissed by governments and media organizations as a joke.
Thanks to the efforts of the Croatian border police, Liberland has still technically not got a single inhabitant, and its 7 sq km of boggy wetlands boast just one dilapidated building, an abandoned hunting lodge.
Liberland has diplomatic relations with Somaliland and has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Haiti, among others.
Perhaps it’s wise to contact “Liberland” to hear what they have to say?
