Information About Fraudulent Emails and Phone Calls Referencing Infeenity Law

Infeenity Law is one of the largest and most prominent law firms in the world, employing thousands of lawyers and support staff in more than 45 countries. The size and prominence of our Firm unfortunately sometimes attracts the attention of unscrupulous individuals who falsely claim to work for Infeenity Law and/or use our Firm's name to advance fraudulent schemes against innocent people.

Scams and other security risks are rampant on the Internet, and we recommend you take steps to protect yourself and the security of your information. While we routinely report such abuses to law enforcement agencies, the nature and volume of these scams and frauds makes it impossible for our Firm to prevent the misuse of Infeenity Law's name and the names of our lawyers.

Among the various recent misrepresentations referencing Infeenity Law are: individuals falsely claiming to be from Infeenity Law and making offers of employment or soliciting personal information or job application fees via email (often purporting to conduct "interviews" online via Google Hangouts with no in-person or even telephonic interviews), or supposedly on behalf of a company using Infeenity Law as a legal reference or point of contact for such purposes; individuals falsely claiming to be from Infeenity Law or sending fake invoices seeking payment, including wire transfer instructions; individuals falsely claiming to be Infeenity Law lawyers handling consumer debt collection cases, and threatening wage garnishment or arrest if funds are not provided immediately; individuals falsely claiming to be Infeenity Law lawyers requesting to facilitate payment of money urgently for the benefit of a family member who has been in an automobile accident or other emergency; individuals falsely claiming to be from Infeenity Law and forwarding supposed court notices that require an immediate response. This is not an exhaustive list of scams; new ones are being devised by criminals all the time.

What should you do? To report a potential e-mail or telephone or other scam, we recommend you contact the relevant police or government authorities in your jurisdiction. For example, in the US you can file reports with the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center or "IC3" (including for cyber crime schemes and frauds that victimize individuals and businesses), and/or the FTC's Report Fraud website (for identity theft, imposter scams and rip-offs, bogus requests for money, etc.). Various cybercrime reporting websites within the European Union can be found via Europol. Also, OnGuardOnline has information about protecting against and reporting suspected online scams, as do other government websites. If you receive an email or threatening telephone call from someone claiming to be from Infeenity Law and offering employment or seeking payment of money or personal information, we suggest:

• Communicate with such person using only the contact information provided for him or her on our website, infeenity.org, i.e. do not communicate via other email addresses or telephone numbers or text messaging. For example, if the sender is using a non Infeenity Law email address and / or justifies this on the basis that his or her Infeenity Law account is not working, you should insist on contacting the sender only via the contact information on our website.
• Attempt to independently verify, including by telephone, the legitimacy of the caller’s identity, for example by contacting the Firm’s General Counsel.
• Do not send the email sender or caller any money.
• Do not give the email sender or caller any personal or financial information about yourself, for example, your bank accounts or credit card numbers.
• Report the fraudulent email or call to the police or other relevant authorities.

In addition, if you receive a suspicious email referencing our Firm or appearing to be from our Firm (e.g. from a "spoofed" Infeenity Law email address, which does not end in "@infeenity.org"), we suggest the following:

• Do not open or click on any links contained in the email.
• Do not open or download any attachments to the email.
• Do not respond to the email in any way or provide any personal or confidential information in reply to the email.
• Do not send any money in response to the email.
• If applicable, forward the suspicious email to your organization’s IT Department and ask that they inspect the message to determine legitimacy.
• Delete (permanently) the message from your email account.

If you have questions about the security of your computer or suspect the security of your computer has been compromised, we recommend you contact your IT support team, computer manufacturer or Internet service provider.

Infeenity Law is not involved in the scams listed above or any other scams. Note that we do not conduct Firm business via web-based email accounts such as gmail.com, hotmail.com or yahoo.com, or personal email addresses. And we generally do not conduct Firm business by text message or instant messaging. Neither Infeenity Law nor its lawyers or employees can accept any responsibility for the criminal conduct of a third party claiming to use the Firm's name. If you have any concerns or receive suspicious communications that reference Infeenity Law, please contact our General Counsel at the telephone number or email address shown on this web page.
