Email re Digital Certificate?

Postby Wicksey » Mon Aug 31, 2015 10:15 am

I received an email this morning from [email protected]. It starts off :

Estimado Usuario/a,

El pasado 1 de marzo la FNMT-RCM inició la emisión de un nuevo tipo de certificado, al objeto de adaptarse a los nuevos
requerimientos de seguridad surgidos por la evolución en internet. Este certificado está provisto de un algoritmo de firma y
longitud de claves más potentes que le dotan de una mayor seguridad, usabilidad y agilidad para realizar trámites on line.

Los certificados emitidos con anterioridad seguirán siendo válidos hasta su fecha de caducidad, o hasta
que solicite uno nuevo o hasta que solicite la revocación del mismo.

Podrá solicitar el nuevo Certificado FNMT de Persona Física a través de nuestra Sede Electrónica
https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/certificad ... ona-fisica siguiendo el procedimiento habitual de renovación.

Is this phishing or has anyone else received it. It doesn't ring true to me as surely it would be addressed to me personally. I haven't clicked on the link as I am always very aware of possible scams like this.

Hi Wicksey,
If you already have a Valid in date Digital Certificate then there is nothing to do.

When you come to renew always use the Links provided in The Forum FAQ's.

To check when your Certificates run out ......look in your Browser ....Options.... Certificates..

(Some Browsers will vary on the commands used)

I recently renewed and there is now a four year time on them.
All my best learning experiences start with a problem I need to solve.

It is planned to replace the Digital Certificate with a totally new system called cl@ve. It does not rely on you installing it on your PC - it can be used on any device.

It's not dissimilar to the system used for increased security on systems like Gmail. Essentially, once set up, you receive a PIN on your mobile phone which you can use on the site you wish to access.

Hello

Can anyone please advise on the following email (x 2) I received. I can only assume this has been sent to me because I complete our annual tax form online and insert both mine and my husband's NIE numbers (by the way, he has not had an email about his certificate). We originally obtained our certificates in 2000/1 when we purchased a property so don't understand why I am being asked to renew mine which is over 4 years old anyway:

Caducidad de su certificado FNMT
Estimado/a usuario/a:

Le informamos que su Certificado FNMT de Persona Física con NIF X4420315Z y número de serie 3D0C41C0
caducará el próximo día 03-03-2017.

Si dispone del mismo en estado válido y no revocado podrá emplearlo para solicitar su renovación desde nuestra
SEDE Electrónica (RENOVAR https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/certificad ... ca/renovar), sin necesidad de
personarse en una de nuestras Oficinas de Registro*.

Si lo desea, puede comprobar el estado de su certificado, así como su fecha y hora de caducidad en nuestra SEDE
Electrónica (Verificar Estado https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/certificad ... car-estado)

En cualquier caso, siempre podrá solicitar un nuevo certificado siguiendo el procedimiento establecido a través de
nuestra SEDE Electrónica (OBTENER CERTIFICADO https://www.sede.fnmt.gob.es/certificad ... ona-fisica) o
bien haciendo uso de su DNIe válido y no revocado (OBTENER con DNIe faltaría confirmar la URL de solicitud con
DNIe)

*Siempre y cuando no se haya excedido el límite máximo de 5 años desde la última identificación física que se llevó
a cabo para la obtención del certificado que le va caducar.

Agradecemos sinceramente su confianza en nuestros servicios

Atentamente,
Departamento CERES
Fábrica Nacional de Moneda y Timbre - Real Casa de la Moneda

Hi lynndm,
The way it reads to me its your Digital signature.........expiry 3/3/2017

So you can renew upto 60days in advance of it expiring...........

PS: you may want to edit out your NIE........... :idea:
