⚠️ Security alert: ongoing phishing campaign
Fraudulent payment requests of €1,250 via email, phone and text message
Dear Sir or Madam, dear Alumni,
We would like to inform you that a phishing campaign is currently targeting several schools within our group. Fraudulent payment requests of €1,250 are being circulated through various channels (emails, phone calls and text messages).
As this attack is simultaneously affecting several institutions outside our group, it strongly suggests that the data leak originated from a common third-party organisation, external to our group and our schools.
As soon as the threat was identified, OMNES Education responded immediately by deactivating the compromised accounts and strengthening the filtering and monitoring protocols on our email servers. Steps are also under way to identify the precise source of the leak.
In accordance with applicable regulations, a notification is being submitted to the CNIL (the French data protection authority), and a complaint will be filed on behalf of the group and its schools.
We urge you to remain particularly vigilant over the coming weeks and not to respond to any request of this kind.
If you are contacted:
- do not engage in any exchange;
- do not provide any personal information;
- do not click on any link;
- end all contact immediately.
Please rest assured that our teams remain fully committed to keeping your data secure. Thank you for your vigilance and cooperation.
The IUM Management
