Fake NS e-mails
Sometimes there are e-mails circulating that appear to originate from NS, but that are actually fake. These are known as phishing e-mails and are intended to gather personal details. These e-mails misuse the NS name and logo in order to induce you to click on a link. If you do so, then scammers may gain access to your personal details.
How to recognise a fake e-mail
Cyber criminals are becoming better and better at creating fake e-mails. Even so, they still make mistakes. Common mistakes include:
- The sender's e-mail address is not an official e-mail address used by NS
- The link in the e-mail refers to a website that does not belong to NS
- The salutation is incorrect and the e-mail contains spelling errors
- The offer in the e-mail is simply too good to be true
Beware! Criminals may also be active on social media such as Facebook and Instagram.
Please note: never call a 0900 number listed in an e-mail! NS will never ask you to call a 0900 number.
