As with any financial services business, there is a risk that criminals seek to impersonate our firm and staff for their own financial gain.
Recent update – phishing attempts
We have been made aware that phishing emails have been sent to property companies using our company name to add legitimacy to their enquiry. We can confirm this request is not linked to a request from Aberforth.
Phishing and spoofing are common tactics used by those seeking to impersonate financial services businesses. In such cases, the email addresses and websites may closely resemble the legitimate company, and/or are spoofed to appear genuine.
If you receive an unsolicited email message claiming to be from Aberforth and you are in any doubt, please complete the "get in touch" section at the bottom of our "contact us" page.
