Do you sell a product online?

Would you be alarmed if you received a complaint notice via email from the Better Business Bureau?

I was… for a about a nano second until I got to the ‘bad English' portion of the message. A quick Google Search confirmed my suspicions that this was indeed a spam message.

Here is the message that I received.

Attention: Owner/Manager

Here with the Better Business Bureau would like to inform you that we have been sent a complaint (ID 18537343) from a customer of yours related to their dealership with you.

If you get one of these, trash it. Do NOT open any links or attachments.

BTW, all I did was search for ‘Fernando Grodhaus' and Google responded with a page full of complaints about this ‘complaint'.
