The Nevada Division of Insurance says it has been made aware of an email phishing scam targeting licensed insurance producers and agents in Nevada.
The division has reportedly received several calls from licensed professionals reporting they received a fraudulent email claiming that their license could be revoked if they do not pay an amendment fee.
A payment link is embedded in the email, which is being sent from “INSURANCE LICENSING donotreply@nevadalicense.us.” It has the subject line: “Nevada Division of Insurance AMENDMENT FEE.”
The email is not from the division, which is warning recipients not to click on any links and to delete the email immediately.
All official division Licensing emails are sent from “nevada.licensing@doi.nv.gov” or “renewal.desk@doi.nv.gov.” Emails received from any other addresses claiming to be the division should be considered fraudulent and should be deleted, the division advises.
