The National Insurance Producers Registry (NIPR) was made aware of the active phishing email campaign and is asking insurance agents to use caution. The emails reference past due invoices and may appear to come from trusted email domains such as @nipr.com, @naic.org, or @stripe. These messages are fraudulent and were not sent from an official NIPR email address or account.
