I have the email. I wish there was a way to forward it here. But I have it, in case anyone from the real BBB wishes to contact me.

It is a plain email without official contact info or logo's. The web site I was suppose to go to could not be accessed through the email and there was no further contact information to which if I needed further info or clarification. It was a simple email stating that there had been a claim filed against me. that I was in violation of the fair labor standards act & that I had 24 hours in which to plead my case. To which there was no specific info to tell me what I should be pleading for. No name of accuser or the specifics of how I violated or even a date of the violation. Only an Abuse Id#. That was it except it was signed by a person with the last name of Banks, from the abuse dept.

Obvious phishing email, claims a BBB complaint has been filed against me, giving me 24 hours to follow some web link and respond. (I did not open the URL; it would have possibly infected my computer.)

Attached file includes all email headers.

- Redmond, WA, USA

Received an email from a Carolyn K Richardson claiming our small firm is violating the "The Safety and Health Act." We are small Architect Firm. We work in our very comfortable office and rarely go out to any jobsite. The email that was sent is from [email protected]. This does not seem to be a BBB.org email? I did not open the email I have just made a screen shot of the reading pane. Please see attached.
If this is not a scam and is really something the BBB.org sent out please call us directly at 425.285.9992. Thanks Kathryn White
