Online Fraud Advisory

SEI will never send emails that require individuals who access the Website (hereinafter, “Users”) to send personal information to us via email, website link or pop-up windows. Any unsolicited request for information you receive through emails, Web sites, or pop-up windows should be considered fraudulent.

Online fraud occurs when someone poses as a legitimate company to obtain sensitive personal data and then illegally conducts transactions on your existing accounts. Often called "phishing" or "spoofing," the most pervasive methods of online fraud are emails, counterfeit Web sites and pop-up windows, or any combination of these.

Fraudulent emails often:

  • Appear to be from a legitimate, trusted source. You should not rely on the name or address in the "From" field, as this can be easily altered.
  • Ask you for personal information. These emails often claim that your information has been compromised or frozen, or ask you to confirm your identity.
  • Link to counterfeit Web sites. These sites may appear legitimate, but actually collect personal information for illegal use. They may also include a link to the real website in an attempt to make the link seem legitimate.
  • Contain fraudulent phone numbers. These telephone numbers are usually tied directly to the fraud perpetrators. Never call a number featured on an email you suspect is fraudulent, and be sure to double-check any numbers you do call. In addition, a legitimate number may be included in an attempt to authenticate the email.

To help protect yourself from these fraudulent emails and Web sites:

  • Never provide sensitive account or personal information in response to an email.
  • Delete suspicious emails without opening them. If you do open a suspicious email, do not open any attachments or click on any links it may contain.
  • Bookmark any sites that house personal account information and use those bookmarks to navigate directly to those sites.
  • Install and regularly update virus protection software.
  • Keep your computer operating system and Web browser current.

Limitation of Liability and Indemnification

UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE, SHALL SEI BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT OR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES THAT RESULT FROM THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE OR ACCESS THE WEBSITE, EVEN IF SEI OR OUR AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT SHALL OUR TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES, AND CAUSES OF ACTION (WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU, IF ANY FOR ACCESSING THE WEBSITE. YOU FURTHER AGREE TO INDEMNIFY AND HOLD SEI AND ITS AGENTS AND EMPLOYEES HARMLESS FROM ANY AND ALL ACTIONS, CLAIMS, COSTS, DEMANDS OR EXPENSES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OF, OR THE INABILITY TO USE OR ACCESS THE WEBSITE. IN JURISDICTIONS THAT DO NOT PERMIT THE LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY OR INDEMNIFICATION PROVISIONS SET FORTH HEREIN, SET'S LAIBILITY IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS.

To receive the indemnities contained in this Agreement, the party seeking indemnification must promptly notify the indemnifying party of a Claim and provide reasonable cooperation (at the indemnifying party’s expense) and full authority to defend or settle the Claim, provided that the indemnifying party may not settle a Claim by requiring an admission of liability, obligation, or payment by the indemnified party without the indemnified party’s prior written consent.
