Fraud warning in the name of Mercedes-Benz
Both Mercedes-Benz and security experts are currently issuing a warning: criminals are sending fake emails with offer catalogs, sales contracts and invoices to persuade customers to pay for non-existent used cars. Particularly perfidious: the fraudsters use deceptively genuine email addresses, real location details and names.
Mercedes-Benz has filed a criminal complaint and is cooperating with the investigating authorities. Most important tip:
- Always check the sender carefully.
- Never transfer money without having seen the vehicle in person.
- If in doubt, contact an authorized dealer.
Our recommendation at DEFENDERBOX:
Cybercrime is becoming increasingly sophisticated. Companies should regularly sensitize their employees to fraud scams and implement protective measures such as email filters, awareness training such as that provided by our Partner Phishing.io and use strong authentication.
