WARNING: Fraudulent emails which pretend to come from Hitachi

We are aware that currently fraudulent emails (phishing emails) are being sent by third parties which purport to come from Hitachi High-Tech GmbH under pretext of a business enquiry or offer. These emails are not connected with Hitachi High-Tech GmbH and we urge anyone who receives such emails to exercise extreme caution and not to reply or act upon them.

The email contains a false sender name of “Dieter Müller“ and a false email address which does not originate from Hitachi. It has the subject “Inquiry 202131729” and the email is written in English. A sample image of the email can be found here.
