Scammer's email[email protected] CountryUnited States Victim LocationLA 71101, USA Type of a scamBusiness Email Compromise
The e-mail was sent on 9/11/2017, but it went to my junk e-mail. I just saw it today 9/28/17 when I was cleaning out my junk e-mail. It looked suspicious because the e-mail was claiming to be from the ScamPulse.com and there were no official logos or contact information (phone number, address of the office) in the body of the e-mail. Therefore, I logged onto the BBB website and found that there were several almost identical scams reported around the same date. See below for the transcribed e-mail:
"This e-mail has been automatically sent to you because BBB has received a complaint, claiming that your company is violating the Fair Labor Standards Act. You can download the text file with the explanation of complaint by the following link: https://bit.ly/ZjhlECM

The subject line in the e-mail to me only contained the Incident number. I didn't fully open the e-mail, nor did I click on the text file link.
It was stated that I was involved in a complaint against an organization and was included as a witness. I was provided a case number and that I would be contacted within 48 hours.
This notification has been automatically generated and sent to you because ScamPulse.com has received a complaint, claiming that your company is violating the Fair Labor Standards Act.
