BBB Warning: Recent Spam Emails Disguised as BBB Complaint

Better Business Bureau Serving Eastern MA, ME, RI & VT (BBB) is warning businesses of recent spam emails disguised as an email from BBB.

The BBB name and logo are being fraudulently used by criminals in an on-going phishing scam. The emails look very much like a notice of a complaint from BBB, but contains links to malware that can infect your computer or steal your passwords.

Please be assured BBB is working with law enforcement as well as a private deactivation firm to shut down as many criminal websites as possible. To date, we have shut down well over 100 sites.

If you have a business and are not certain whether the complaint is legitimate, contact your local BBB.
