Allianz Warns of Fake "Flexgeld 4.15%" Emails, Calls In Law Enforcement

The phishing emails mimic a legitimate 4.15% product to lure consumers into losing money.

Overview

  • Allianz says the advertised "Allianz‑Flexgeld 4.15% p.a. with 12‑month guarantee" does not exist at the company.
  • The insurer has involved law enforcement and posted a detailed warning on its website about the impersonation scheme.
  • Reporters describe the emails as deceptively realistic, showing AI‑like formatting and citing multiple Allianz entities.
  • According to Allianz, at least one other insurance company has been targeted by the same scam.
  • Allianz does offer 4.15% for ten months within a split structure of 40% fixed deposit and 60% asset management, so customers are urged to verify any offers only via official agencies or the company website.
