Halle (Saale), January 26, 2026
There are currently an increasing number of suspicious inquiries to members of the BBK Saxony-Anhalt. The sender is a “Judita” or a “Katharina” or a “Paschal” with a gmx address or gmail address, who expresses interest in the artistic work in English and asks to be contacted. Apparently, our homepage with our artist overview was used to locate and contact our members. A member’s research revealed that this is a phishing email, i.e. an attempt at fraud aimed at stealing personal data or enticing people to click on malicious links or attachments.
We advise you not to reply to this e-mail request!
Best regards and many thanks to everyone who forwarded this suspicious mail to us!
