Important notice

_{(Last updated: Jul 2026)}

Societe Generale is aware of scams in which individuals falsely claim to represent Societe Generale in order to target members of the public in Japan. These scams may involve the offering of investment products, including shares, bonds, or deposit-related investments, and requesting for payments in connection with the purchase of such products or the payment of upfront fees.

Some cases reported to us have involved fraudsters contacting individuals by email, messaging applications, or social media while purporting to act on behalf of Societe Generale or its employees and using the Societe Generale name and logo. These communications may originate from impersonating email domains (for example, @societe-general.tokyo) that are neither owned nor authorised by Societe Generale.

Societe Generale does not advertise or solicit investment products or payment services to the general public through social media in Japan. Any unsolicited approach, investment proposal, or request for payment in such circumstances should be treated as suspicious and potentially fraudulent.

If you believe that you, or someone you know, may have been targeted by or become a victim of such a scam, please report the matter to the Financial Services Agency of Japan and contact the police without delay.

Societe Generale is aware of scams in which imposters pose as Societe Generale to target members of the public in Australia. These scams may involve the offering of investment products (including shares, bonds or deposit investments), or requests for upfront fees purportedly required to initiate, process or release large domestic or international money transfers. None of these are genuine Societe Generale products or services.
 
Some scams reported to us involve imposters contacting individuals via email, messaging applications or social media, and providing forged letters, payment instructions or transaction confirmations bearing the Societe Generale name and logo to give the appearance of legitimacy. These documents are fictitious and not issued by Societe Generale. We are also aware of imposters falsely claiming to represent a Societe Generale office in Melbourne, a city where we have no presence, and of emails sent using misleading domains such as @societgenerale.com.au (incorrect spelling of “Societe”).
 
Societe Generale does not request upfront fees from members of the public to facilitate investments or third party transfers, nor do we advertise investment products or payment services to the public via social media in Australia. Any unsolicited approach or request for payment in these circumstances should be treated as suspicious and likely fraudulent.
 
If you believe you, or someone you know, has been targeted or scammed, please lodge a report of misconduct with ASIC, report the matter to police, and submit a report to ReportCyber.
