The fake RIB scam consists of a fraudulent change of payment details. The fraudster, for various reasons (relocation, account issue), will impersonate Eiffage, its subsidiaries, its employees (using letterhead, graphic charter, logos, etc.), in order to encourage you to make an illegitimate transfer to a bank account that is not opened by Eiffage, for the payment of a real or fictitious invoice.
Contact your usual contact person before taking any action.
Fraudsters can place orders on the internet, or contact suppliers and customers by email, pretending to be Eiffage, its subsidiaries or employees in order to try to obtain deliveries (construction equipment, materials, goods, gifts, products...). They can use names of existing or invented collaborators. They can also create email addresses close to those of the Eiffage group as well as fake SEO sites to retrieve company documents. (Kbis, RIB, SIREN/SIRET, administrative certificates, professional contact details or other corporate documents reusable in spoofing scenarios). They may also present themselves on site with distinctive features (clothing, etc.) that impersonate the identity of Eiffage or its subsidiaries.
In case of doubt, make a counter-call to your usual contact person to check the purchase order.
Be particularly vigilant about urgent requests, or with delivery in a cross-border area. In some cases, we note that a few days before the delivery of equipment (coils, electric batteries, computers, etc.), the fraudster changes the delivery address.
Fake real estate products are commonly offered through fraudulent websites. These fake products or services can take the form of SCPI shares, high-yield investments, parking spaces, and photovoltaic parks in France or abroad. Warning!

So remember to check that the products or services offered to you are indeed present on the official website: www.eiffage-immobilier.fr.

Sometimes, the billing address given is at 76400 Sotteville-lès-Rouen. They can also send false proof of transfer.
Our reservations are in principle made via the Amex agency and any reservation outside is exceptional and must attract your attention.
