I have received two e-mails so far that say they are from BBB regarding a complaint that has been filed against our law firm requesting me to review the complaint by clicking on a link. It is obviously a scam, but thought I would let you know this is happening. Second e-mail address was from [email protected]

I have saved the e-mails if needed.

The scan was in 2 parts. The first was the McAfee rep who canceled a fake subscription renewal. The second was from a person ******* who purported to be from the Better Business Bureau who was rep who could refund the $299.99 to my bank account which was charged for the renewal. The logo on my computer screen was the BBB logo. Following ******* verbal instructions, I opened a Command Prompt to enter the dollar amount to be refunded but the number of 9s and the placement of the decimal point kept changing until the computer itself (or the hacker who may already have been in my computer) acted as if I had pressed Enter, although I hadn’t. At that point I lost control of my machine for about 10 minutes (a blue screen came up with a Software Update message and a warning not to turn it off). The explanation from ***** was that the refund was being processed in the background. When control returned to me, it showed a deposit into my account of $29,999.00 (the decimal has been moved 2 spaces to the right) and ***** emphasized I needed to refund the BBB the overage: $29,699.01. Ordinarily this should be done via wire transfer but, because it was nearly 5 PM on a Friday, they would accept 30% as a good-faith gesture until after the Presidents’ Day holiday. I had only $3000 in available funds that I could use at the moment and ***** agreed to accept that but I had to send it right away under penalty of the BBB seizing all my accounts and sending an arrest warrant on the charge of defrauding the BBB of the amount of the overage of the deposit. The method for getting this $3000 to ***** was to take out a cash advance at an ATM, take the cash to a Target store, purchase 6 $500 gift cards and send photos of the serial numbers to ***** for processing. This, he said, would satisfy his higher-ups in the BBB until we could work on the rest to whom he would also submit a recording of our complete phone conversation so they would know I was operating in good faith. Upon checking my bank accounts this morning, the $29,999 deposit no longer appears and I became convinced I was scammed. ***** said he was in California and the contact number he gave me was ###-###-####. He called again this morning but I told him I wasn’t going to do anything more and that I considered this a scam. He threatened to send the police. That’s his it stands at the moment.

I just received a phone call from Jennifer Lauren. Her phone number is 470-444-8704. She said she was with the Better Business Bureau. She knew my Social Security, birth date number and my contact information. They have a program to help deserving people get out of credit card debt. She read my credit card information. I told her I would have to put money on it. She gave me her name and number. I don't know how she knew my information. She wanted me to put $500 on my account to make final payment. They would cancel the debt. I did not give anything out. I wanted to let you know someone is claiming to be you.

I received a text message this morning from the Better Business Bureau. Would I please take a survey regarding fraud. It would take about twelve minutes. I think at the bottom of the text there may have been a survey. I deleted the text. If had any questions call 608-265-4312. I called the number back. I could not understand the woman that answered. I called twice and could not understand her. I just hung up and called the Better Business Bureau. We get so many robocalls. We had ninety two robocalls in August.

My phone rang and the person identified themselves as Larry Jackson and said he was with the Better Business Bureau. He was contacting me for publishers clearinghouse to find out why I was not claiming my prize. He was well spoken did not sound like a foreigner at all. I told him I did not believe him he said he was in charge of finding out if I even knew I had won. I told him I wanted to speak to his supervisor and he said he was in charge of me. I told him no he’s not I am in charge of myself and he was a liar and I hung up. I gave you the phone number that showed up on my caller ID.

This individual started off with this.

"Good Evening, My name is John Williams, The online director of the Better Business Bureau.. ScamPulse.com in collaboration with face book compensation imposed by the United State Government. The Cash Funding program as over 70 billion USD available for Funding for the world lucky winners. I Would like to notify you that you have been chosen by the board of Directors/Trustees as one of the final recipients of a cash compensation claim. Are You Ready To Proceed ?"

I happen to live in Australia where we don't have the BBB.

Unfortunately your drop down menus only allow for American locations.

He is threatening to send the Bureaus lawyer after me who goes by the name of Frederick wallace smith.

The phone number provided belongs to a totally different person .

Does any such compensation program actually exist?

He called me on my telephone, he referred to something about Wells Fargo, Wells Fargo Call, and I wrote down he said he was with Better Business Bureau. His name is Jason Edwards. His employer ID he gave is CRM1843 and provided two phone numbers. He said he wants to put security onto any new bank accounts, asked me for the name of any new bank accounts and I didn't provide that information because I didn't know who he was. He wanted to know what my new bank accounts were and I didn't provide that information.

I received another scam call using the ScamPulse.com name. I reported this the other day. Caller was Brian Davis. Said he works for the BBB. I got their phone number this time. Phone number 770-413-2186 in my caller ID. He was calling to clear my credit card debt. Wanted to go over my Discover card. I did not listen to him or give information. I think this is the same guy.

Male called me and told me that he was from the ScamPulse.com and said that publishers clearing house was trying to get ahold of me for a check I won for shopping at a store and that he needed my address. When I questioned him about being from the ScamPulse.com and why the ScamPulse.com would be concerned with a publishers clearing house "winner" he said that my "check" would be donated to charity. I told him that's fine because this is obviously a scam
