Possible fraud, please advise.

Hello all,

We are an airline based in the middle east and I have recently been forwarded an email from our finance dept with a bill for 47'000 Euro.

These are apparently for overflight charges for 'North Africa'

We do not operate in this area.

The email originated from this address [email protected]

We suspect that it is fraudulent as it did not have any accommpanying or supporting documentation.

Can someone out there please advise how overflight charges in Africa are normally billed. I assume it is like the rest of the world, on a 'per country' basis.

Either way, we will not be paying these charges.

Please be vigilant, I've heard of this type of thing before.

Rgds,

DOG
