Fraudulent Emails, Identity Theft and Financial Fraud
Alert to Fraudulent E-mail - 28 November 2008
The Bank of England is aware that its name and that of some of its people are sometimes used to validate a range of different forms of fraud, perpetrated against innocent third parties. The identity theft element of these scams can include fraudulent emails, the replication of faxes from the Bank of England, copies of our website and the creation of a false Bank of England telephone switchboard. Examples of replica documents and sites have occurred both in the UK and elsewhere across the world.
Whilst the Bank of England can take no responsibility for losses arising from such sites, services or documents, we are dedicated to the task of playing our part in reducing identity theft and fraud.
If you have any doubts about the legitimacy of any correspondence purporting to be from the Bank of England please do not hesitate to contact us at enquiries@bankofengland.co.uk. If you have received what is obviously a fraudulent email purporting to be from the Bank it is important that you do not access any links within it, disclose any personal information or reply to it. Please forward it to the enquiries e-mail account referred to above and then delete it from your email account.
