Beware of false Sodexo messages asking you to update your data

We have received several reports of messages purporting to be from Sodexo via an address such as "[email protected]", the content of which is similar to the one illustrated below (data to manage your customer area).

[translation] You are asked to confirm or deny your personal data in the Civil Status Register on behalf of a public body, in this case the Flemish Region, for the management of your service vouchers via a so-called "secure" area leading to a fraudulent site.

The idea is to urge you and to encourage you to hand over your bank details.

There is only one thing to do: never click on the link and above all do not enter your data!
