Don't fall into the trap of fake contests

A message is currently circulating on behalf of Axa. The message encourages you to give your opinion on your experience with Axa in order to win a car emergency kit. Don't be fooled by the lure of a gift and don't click on the link.
This is clearly an attempt at phishing. If you check the sender's e-mail address, you'll see that it's not from Axa.

Did you click on a suspicious link?

  • If you did click, don't fill in the fields any further and abort any interaction.
  • NEVER give out personal codes.
  • If you have passed on a password that you also use in other places, change it immediately.
Have you been ripped off?

  • From the moment you lose money or are extorted, we recommend you file a police report. You file a report with the local police in your place of residence. 
  • Contact your bank and/or Card Stop on 078 170 170 if you have passed on bank details, money disappears from your bank account or you have transferred money to a scammer. That way, any fraudulent transactions can be blocked.
