As I personally do not have any customers, I found this to be very fishy and as the person is posing as one of your representatives i thought you should know.

For security reasons I did not open any attachments or links so i do not know what sort of scam this may be.

Below is a cut and past copy of the email that was sent to me.

Caller identified himself to be from the Better Business Bureau and claimed that someone was trying to open a credit card in my step fathers name. They had the last 4 of his actual social security number. Caller said they needed to speak with him directly to go over "financials". When I told caller he wasn't available at that time, he kept insisting on speaking to him. I asked if the caller would give me a phone number to call him back on and he refused. I ended the call at that.

The scammer stated he was calling from the BBB. He was foreign and a number was not listed. He claimed the BBB would be sending me $85.000 dollars. He wanted me to give my credit card number so he could put $300 in my account. I told him he was a scammer & hung up on him. He called me back & tried his speel again. Hung up on him again.

I received an email from the BBB about a customers business contact and uneasiness. My business has not opened yet and I haven’t worked with any other persons getting my business up and running. I’m curious if this email is a scam or something that i should take serious and that I need to look into?

This was a phishing email, that attempted to have the targeted person click an appeal link to dispute a customer's claim against their company. It even provided a case number to reference. The appeal link was not clicked. The body of the email contained the following:

"The Better Business Bureau has recorded the above said reclamation from one of your customers regarding their business contacts with you. The detailed description of the consumer's uneasiness is available by clicking the link below. Please pay attention to this question and let us know about your judgement as soon as possible.
