What is phishing and how do I protect myself from it?

Phishing is a scam in which criminals try to impersonate trusted people or companies in order to obtain personal or confidential data.

To recognize possible phishing messages:
  • Be wary of offers that seem too good to be true.
  • Watch out for unknown senders and suspicious links.
  • Check the actual email address behind the sender's name displayed.
  • Spelling mistakes or unusual wording can indicate an attempt at fraud.
Even deceptively real news can be fake
Some fraudulent emails look like they come from IKEA at first glance. They may use our logo, graphics or a professional design. Even if there are no linguistic errors, it may be an attempt at fraud.
To protect your data:
  • Don't click on links or attachments if you're not sure about the authenticity of the message.
  • Never share sensitive information such as passwords, payment details, or personal information.
  • Delete suspicious emails without clicking on any links they contain.
Your safety is important to us. If you are unsure about a message, we recommend that you check the authenticity directly through official IKEA channels.
