Manitoba Public Insurance is warning its customers not to respond to a text which is offering an e-transfer of money.

The text, which appears to be from MPI, asks the customer to click a link which will send a refund via e-mail transfer. It appears that the e-transfers are coming from different phone numbers.

Manitoba Public Insurance does not conduct business in this manner. Customers who have concerns are asked to contact either their Autopac broker or Manitoba Public Insurance’s Contact Centre: 204-985-7000.
