Need advice: someone may have opened a South African bank account using my name. I'm Dutch

Hi everyone,

I live in the Netherlands and recently received an email that makes it look like someone may have used my name/details to open a bank account in South Africa. I have not opened or downloaded the attached PDF statement they sent along with the email.

I tried looking up what I should do, but most of the advice I can find is aimed at people in the US, so I’m not really sure what applies to me here in the Netherlands.

Has anyone dealt with something similar before, or does anyone know what I should do next?

Any advice would really help. Thanks in advance.
