AXA Private Equity has received reports of unauthorized persons using AXA Private Equity's name to lure potential victims into sending money to fund fictitious investments. This appears to be an ongoing scam in North America and Europe and it is being perpetrated by people who have nothing to do with AXA Private Equity. Certain of these frauds claim that AXA Private Equity has agreed to serve as "guarantor" or as "lender" in a transaction in which the person contacted is urged to participate by sending funds. The persons perpetuating these frauds utilize various aliases and their communications may be transmitted on counterfeit AXA Private Equity letterhead.
AXA Private Equity has reported these incidents to law enforcement authorities. Should you or someone you know be contacted by one of these fraudsters, or should you have any question about the bona fides of persons purporting to act on behalf of AXA Private Equity, please contact our Legal Department at the number provided below.
DO NOT FORWARD ANY MONEY OR DOCUMENTS IN RESPONSE TO UNSOLICITED INVITATIONS.
