This is the SECOND time I've reported this. It's not from a legitimate business, and I don't know why BBB thinks it is. As I reported the first time, the email address is not a Carshield email address, yet they say they're legitimate. It is just a picture of what CarShield really sends out, with none of the links able to be clicked on. Carshield uses www.carshield.com. This imposter uses www.carshieldprotection.com. The real CarShield wants your vehicle information since that's important for a quote about a car's warranty. The fake one only wants your personally identifiable information. The real CarShield uses [email protected] as their email address. The fake one uses this [email protected] as well as many other emails, none ending in carshield.com. After doing more research, Snopes.com warned people of this in 2022. BBB tells me they are legitimate and that I should complain about them. That might be why the real business is rated a D with them. They probably keep telling people to complain to the legitimate business because of scammers. I am hoping they see this is a scam since wherever you click on the email, it takes you to the scammer's website. My parents are older, and I don't want them to be scammed by this phishing email.
