The Netherlands Chamber of Commerce KVK works with external partners to get to know entrepreneurs better through customer research. KVK uses the insights from the research to improve its provision of services. The researchers usually approach entrepreneurs by email, or sometimes also by telephone.
Cyber Magazine SECURE IT!
Cyber magazine SECURE IT! contains tips and information on how to secure your business online.
From time to time, researchers approach entrepreneurs to ask for their opinions on KVK. They use several email addresses for this.
Starting on Tuesday 9 December, we will send an email from the email address: KVK@mailing.marketresponse.nl with the subject line: “Onderzoek: Wat is jouw mening over KVK?" (Survey: What is your opinion about KVK?). We will send a reminder after about one week.
False emails, letters, phone calls and text messages regularly circulate from scammers pretending to be from KVK. This is called phishing. The email mentioned above really is from KVK. The email address is also listed under KVK’s safelist for email addresses.
