Alert: How to Contact Official Sage Support to Avoid Third-Party Scams

Scams are becoming more sophisticated in today's technologically advanced world. When working with Sage software support, it's critical to understand how to spot and avoid fraudulent practices. Here's your safety checklist:

Bookmark Official Resources:  

 

Identify Imposter Communications: 

  • Be cautious of emails, websites, and social media accounts that look official but aren’t.
  • Check for inconsistent branding like altered logos or brand colors.

Warning: To ensure important Sage alerts reach your inbox, add [email protected] and @sagecity.com to your safe sender's list. In most email clients, you can do this by marking a Sage email as 'Not Spam' or 'Safe Sender.'

Avoid Search Engine Traps: 

  • Familiarize yourself with Sage's custom URLs such as www.SageU.com, www.SageCity.com, www.SageKB.com
  • For legitimate resources, visit Sage.com and use the 'Support' option in the top menu. This will redirect you to your local 'Sage Support Central page.

 

Read the Fine Print and Verify Links: 

  • Examine disclaimers and look for domains that closely resemble the official ones. 
  • Authentic Sage sites will always use domains like "sage.com."

Trust Your Instincts and Beware of False Urgency: 

  • Scammers often create a sense of urgency to trick you. If it feels off, it likely is.
  • Sage will never pressure you into quick actions or request sensitive information over the phone.

Be Alert to Voice Scams: 

  • Always confirm the caller’s identity by reaching out to official Sage support numbers: 086 123 7243

Report Suspicious Activity:

  • Contact Sage directly at 086 123 7243
  • In South Africa, if you have been  a victim of a fraudster, please inform the Cybercrime.org.za authorities 
  • To report a phishing email to Sage, forward the email to [email protected]

Stay informed:

  • Keep up to date on new scam methods through official resources and community forums.

By following these tips, you'll ensure that you are communicating with the genuine Sage support team and protecting yourself against evolving scams.
