Email claiming to be on behalf of the OISC

Look out for bogus OISC 'survey' requests

• From: Office of the Immigration Services Commissioner

We are aware that some OISC-registered advisers have been sent suspicious emails asking them to fill in a survey/selling software on OISC’s behalf. We can confirm this is not the case, and that we have not asked anyone to undertake any surveys on our behalf. OISC would never use a third-party in this way.

Emails from OISC will come from our organisation email address (name@oisc.gov.uk).

If you are unsure about any emails you receive, please do not reply or follow any links, and feel free to check with our Customer Service Unit about the validity of any emails before responding.

More information on how to keep cyber-safe can be found on the National Cyber Security Centre’s advice pages.
