New Hampshire’s Attorney General Alerts on Small Business Impersonation Scams

by Richie

in Fraud & Scams, Security & Risk

New Hampshire’s Attorney General John M. Formella is raising an alarm over a surge in scams where fraudsters create websites imitating legitimate local small businesses. These counterfeit sites, particularly prevalent in the firearms and heavy equipment sectors, offer products at steep discounts and prompt customers to pay via bank wire transfers, often resulting in the loss of funds to overseas scammers.

To protect against these sophisticated schemes, the Attorney General advises consumers to exercise caution and due diligence:

Skepticism about Discounts: Approach unusually large discounts with suspicion as they could indicate a scam.
Inquisitive Purchasing: If an offer seems dubious, engage the seller with detailed questions to understand the rationale behind the discount.Direct Communication: Request a phone conversation with the seller to ask comprehensive questions and gauge the seller’s credibility.


Verification Steps
:

    • Seek and check references to establish the seller’s authenticity.
    • Ensure consistency in the seller’s contact information across all platforms.
    • Whenever possible, visit the seller in person to inspect the product and validate the sale.
    • Consult local law enforcement or the Attorney General’s Office for any prior complaints about the seller.

Awareness of Scam Tactics: Recognize that scammers can forge documents and create convincing fake websites and social media profiles.

Payment Method Caution: Avoid transactions that require payment through money transfer services or gift cards.
Secure Payment Practices: Refrain from wiring money without thorough seller verification as outlined above.These guidelines aim to help New Hampshire residents avoid becoming victims of impersonation scams by promoting vigilance and thorough seller validation before making any purchases.
