A fraudulent e-mail is currently being circulated on behalf of various insurance companies, including Ethias, ING, Belfius, Axa, Corona Direct, Allianz Assistance, AG Insurance, Baloise and KBC Assurances.
The e-mail mentions a refund you could receive on your 2024 premium following a policy review. You are invited to click on a link to check your details and obtain your refund.
Don't fall for it, it's a phishing message.
What should you look out for?
- Check the sender's e-mail address: high@muchosgrande.com does not correspond to your insurance company.
- The message relies on urgency to supposedly reimburse you quickly.
- The email is not addressed to you personally.
- Always check the link they are trying to direct you to. In this case, it does not correspond to the domain name of an insurance company.
