**Beware of Scam Emails Posing as ASIC**

Attention all Registry customers, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) would like to remind you to stay vigilant against fraudulent emails imitating ASIC. Scammers are targeting individuals via email, falsely representing themselves as ASIC and prompting you to renew your business or company name. These emails may request you to pay fees and provide personal information.

**What to Watch For:**

These fraudulent emails often contain dangerous links that can expose your computer to malware when clicked. It is crucial to identify these deceitful communications to protect your personal information and prevent unauthorized access to your finances. Here are some tell-tale signs of a scam email:

– **Requests for payment over the phone**
– **Requests for payment to receive a refund**
– **Direct requests for your credit card or bank details**
– **Fees that differ from those listed on ASIC’s official website**
– **Emails received outside of ASIC’s usual communication timeframes**

**Verifying Legitimate Communication:**

Authentic ASIC notifications are sent from the email address ASIC.Transaction.No-reply@asic.gov.au. Always verify the sender’s email address and be cautious of any email that does not come from this address.

If you suspect that you have received a scam email, please remain cautious and do not click on any links or provide any personal information.

Stay informed and protect your personal data by recognizing and reporting these fraudulent attempts. Your awareness is key in preventing cybercrime.

You can safely renew your business name with Registration Pty Ltd, an ASIC Registered Agent at their website Reg.com.au
