Fraudsters pretending to be acting on behalf of Ardian are currently attempting clients via a fake email address related to a fictitious company called "ARDIAN". Their e-mail contains an offer for a "Term Account", presented in a deceptive and misleading manner, in the form of an Ardian Group "product sheet". Be vigilant and check the identities of the people contacting you. ARDIAN does not resort to phone solicitation or e-mail canvassing.
