Fake CEO fraud
Flagged by Autorité des marchés financiers · Quebec (CAN)
Official Warnings (1)
The AMF has received information that a scammer sent a company’s employee an e-mail signed by the CEO requesting that that the employee perform a transaction on a priority basis in connection with a takeover bid. An individual claiming to be a lawyer then made several calls to the employee to confirm the amounts to be transferred. To make the request seem even more credible, the employee was told the transaction was authorized by the AMF, which was not the case.
