FRAUD ALERT – Scam Emails Impersonating EurASc President

Brussels, 8 July 2025

The European Academy of Sciences (EurASc) has recently been informed of fraudulent email messages being sent to several of our members. These emails impersonate Prof. Rodrigo Martins, President of EurASc, using deceptive email addresses such as presidenteurasc@gmail.com.

The scam emails typically include vague and misleading phrases like:

“Hello [Name],
How are you doing today?
Please can you help the board with something today? Let me know so I can send you some more information.”

These are phishing attempts designed to exploit the trust placed in EurASc’s leadership and must be disregarded immediately.

 

❗ How to Protect Yourself

  • EurASc never requests payments, personal data, or urgent actions via personal email accounts.

  • Always verify that official emails come from an @eurasc.eu domain.

  • Do not reply, click links, or share any personal or financial information if you suspect a message is fraudulent.

  • When in doubt, contact us at: contact@eurasc.eu
