We warns against financial frauds appearing on the Internet, impersonating the company.
Fake ads promising high and reliable profits appear primarily on Facebook, YouTube, numerous websites, in emails, text messages, and online advertisements. These fake ads most often encourage investment in shares of Maasvlakte Storage B.V. company and investment projects run by the Group. These ads unlawfully use the names and trademarks of state institutions, state-owned companies, or the images of individuals associated with them.
As a reminder , Maasvlakte Storage B.V. encourages investing only through its official website channel, www.maasvlaktebv.com and through its official email profiles. Below, we’ve outlined the characteristics of online phishing, which is the act of impersonating another company in fraudulent ways.
How to recognize a fraud attempt
Misuse of Company Logos and Branding
Fraudulent profiles and websites often use altered versions of the Maasvlakte Storage B.V. logo or branding materials to appear legitimate. These fake logos may also appear in promotional graphics, advertisements, and social media content designed to mislead visitors.
Suspicious Website Names and Unofficial Email Addresses
Be cautious of websites or social media profiles using names that closely resemble Maasvlakte Storage B.V. Fraudulent operators often imitate legitimate company identities to deceive clients. Official communication from Maasvlakte Storage B.V. will only originate from verified company email addresses connected to our official domain.
False Investment and Asset Information
Scam websites may publish misleading information regarding company assets, storage operations, investment opportunities, or business activities. These materials frequently contain inaccurate claims, exaggerated offers, and noticeable grammatical or formatting errors.
Manipulated Documents and Fake Personnel Information
Fraudulent websites sometimes display altered documents, edited images, and fabricated company records to appear authentic. These materials may include fake employee identities, unauthorized staff photographs, or fictional executive and board member profiles.
Inconsistent Graphic Design and Communication Style
Unauthorized websites and scam communications may use colors, layouts, and text styles that differ from the official communication standards of Maasvlakte Storage B.V. Poor design consistency is often a warning sign of impersonation.
Links to Unverified Third-Party Websites
Scam advertisements and fraudulent messages may redirect users to external websites that are not affiliated with Maasvlakte Storage B.V. or recognized industry partners. Visitors should always verify that they are interacting with official company platforms before sharing information or making transactions.
Suspicious Online Activity and Hidden Feedback
Fraudulent posts and websites may receive numerous negative reactions while displaying very few visible comments. In some cases, warning messages from users attempting to report suspicious activity may be hidden or removed to prevent others from recognizing the scam.
