Scam messages concerning rent payments

Several Finns have been sent fraudulent text messages related to rent dept. The sender of the message is “Taloyhtiö” or a company acting as a landlord. Nothing should be paid to the account number mentioned in the message.

There have been no data security issues on the systems of Soihtu or the service provider, and the personal data stored in the systems has not been endangered.

Soihtu communicates about rent payments mainly by email and the messages always come from an address ending in soihtu.fi. The account number has not changed. Tenants of Soihtu can always see up-to-date rent payment status on their own Tenant’s page.
