scam
Online fraud

Dear FICPI Friends,

01 July 2025: It has come to our attention that scammers are pretending, yet again, to be Roberto Pistolesi, FICPI President. 

This time they are asking for assistance for the FICPI board.

Today a number of members have received an email from [email protected], masked by Dr Pistolesi's name, asking for assistance.

Please ignore any messages of this kind that you may receive and under no circumstance act on its contents or engage with the scammer.  They will eventually ask for financial assistance.

I copy below a sample of the kind of email received for your reference:
