Hong Kong regulator warns public of fake insurer websites

The IA has notified the policies about the fake website.

The Hong Kong Insurance Authority has issued a warning for the public to beware of mimicking official websites of two authorised insurers, Prudential Hong Kong Limited and Prudential General Insurance Hong Kong Limited.

Both insurers have confirmed they have no connection with the aforementioned website.

The IA said it has reported the matter to the Hong Kong Police Force for further investigation. 

The IA advised that anyone who has provided personal information to the fake website or has conducted insurance transactions through the website should contact the Prudential Customer Services Hotline at 2281-1333 (Life Insurance) or 3656-8362 (General Insurance and Employee Benefits), and report the case to the Hong Kong Police Force

According to the Insurance Ordinance, any company carrying on insurance business in or from Hong Kong must be authorised by the IA.
