The "BBB" company called our Sales Department asking for our CEO by his full name to discuss customer inquiries on our company. Anyone who'm would associate at all with my company's president would have his direct line or wouldn't call him by his full name.
Caller identified as *** ***. ***.

Type of a scam:Tech Support
Caller said that he was with the BBB and he was investigating a company that had taken $100 from me in a tech support scam. He wanted to return my money on behalf of the BBB, but he needed me to give him access to my computer. I refused and he became irate.
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.
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

Type of a scam:Sweepstakes/Lottery/Prizes
A message was left on my phone by James Anderson of the BBB of West Florida telling me I had won $2.5M . He asked that I call him back at 727-645-0026. I feel this is a scam. I did not call him back.

The BBB has stated this is not from them and is a phishing attempt. Do not click any links.
Received email from Dona A Isaac supposedly with the BBB about my company is violating the Fair Labor Standards Act. I don't have a company. Also, I can't believe the BBB would send an email from the US using an email address in Italy.
