- ASIC has received reports that scammers have been using look-alike domains to pretend to be 魅影直播 and approach Registry customers via email.
- The emails ask Registry customers to pay fees and give personal information to renew their business or company name.
- These emails often have a link that requests your 魅影直播 user names and passwords and may infect your computer with malware if you click the link.
How can I tell if an email is not from 魅影直播?
An email is probably a scam and is not from 魅影直播 if it:
- asks you to make a payment over the phone
- asks you to make a payment to receive a refund
- asks you for your credit card or bank details directly by email or phone
- asks you to pay fees that are different to the聽fees on our website
- arrives outside of 魅影直播鈥檚 timeframes 鈥� 魅影直播 will only issue a renewal notice 30 days before your renewal date.聽聽on our register and if it's outside our usual timeframe, it might be a scam
ASIC notifications will come from the email address聽ASIC.Transaction.No-reply@asic.gov.au.聽Sometimes scams will try to use very similar looking email addresses to 魅影直播鈥檚.
