The Better Business Bureau is once again receiving multiple reports from companies – and even consumers – who have received one of the emails above. They are NOT legitimate. If you receive any of these emails, delete them without clicking on any links or attachments. If you’ve already received one of these emails and clicked on links or attachments, run a virus scan to ensure your computer is free of viruses and/or malware. Also, be aware that this phishing email may change throughout the day, so the sender email address may change, but will look similar to the emails above.

We apologize for any inconvenience. This email was generated by someone outside the BBB system and we are working to discover its origin. If you ever have a question about any communication you receive from the BBB, please call 651-699-1111 or send an email to ask@thefirstbbb.org.

(Also, there's no need to forward these fraudulent messages to us, as we already have several examples).
