Warning about phishing e-mails

In light of recent events, we would like to warn you of an increasing number of fraudulent e-mails in circulation which are intended to give the impression of an IP or copyright warning. Various reputable IP law firms, including BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT, are being abusively named as the alleged senders.

These emails (so-called “phishing e-mails”) ask you to follow links or open attached documents. These contain malware and/or are intended to obtain data without authorization.

If you are the recipient of such e-mails, please exercise extreme caution. In particular, check carefully whether the sender actually corresponds to the company named. Such e-mails are often sent from different domain identifiers. Please note: All e-mails from BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT always and exclusively have the following format as the sender e-mail: NAME@boehmert.de.

In case of suspicion, do not follow the instructions contained in the e-mail and contact the law firm named as the alleged sender using their known contact details for further clarification.

You can always reach BOEHMERT & BOEHMERT via our contact form or via the additional contact options listed on our website.

Further information on phishing E-mails can be found on the website of the Federal Office for Information Security.
