Scam alert!

We have been made aware of phishing emails being sent to Canadians, bearing Aviva Canada’s name and logo. The email offers a brand new fire safety kit for those who complete a questionnaire about their experience with Aviva. This is not legit, and a phishing attempt by fraudsters to collect information about you.

Do not click on any links or provide any personal details about yourself.

Red flags in this phishing email:

  • Fake sender domain (emails from Aviva end with @aviva.com)
  • No such thing as Aviva Rewards or Aviva Good Shopper
  • Grammatical errors

If you have received such an email, please contact Aviva Verify and our 24/7 Fraud Information Centre:

If you report this matter to us, do not discard the email until advised to do so.

If you have provided any personal information which you believe is linked to a scam, we also recommend that you contact your local police department, as well as your financial institution.

Disclaimer: It is your responsibility to determine if this incident should also be reported to your financial institutions and/or local police authorities
