The Italian Institute for Insurance Supervision has ordered the blocking of two websites that were offering insurance services without authorization. The affected domains are www.rca.aspeviroma.it and rca.aspeviroma.it, and breve.allianzcostacalabrese.it. Blocking by providers operating in Italy is under way, although effective blocking may take several days for technical reasons. The action brings the number of sites blocked by IVASS to 376 since November 2023, when it began exercising its blocking power. IVASS also warned consumers to be cautious about policy offers made through instant messaging or phone messages, especially where payment is requested via prepaid credit cards, and to avoid websites not included in its official lists of supervised insurance intermediaries and insurance undertakings.
