Scams, especially by email, are unfortunately still very common, in France and around the world. The scammers practice, among other things, a technique known as “phishing”, or “phishing”. This scam consists in obtaining the bank details of the victim, to use them for fraudulent purposes.

In recent months, we have seen fraudulent Chronopost SMS messages, or even abusive calls referring to the CPF account. The new company whose identity is usurped by the crooks is none other than EDF. Indeed, the name and logo of this energy giant are currently on everyone’s mind in the context of the energy crisis, which makes it the ideal candidate for scams.
