Attorney-General John M. Formella has issued a warning about fraudulent websites posing as legitimate Granite State small businesses offering their products online, including firearms and heavy equipment. The scammers typically advertise products for sale at deeply discounted prices and may use fraudulent email addresses to “verify” the small business through independent organizations such as the Better Business Bureau, the Chamber of Commerce, and Show Me Local. The scammers often insist that the consumer pay for the products using a bank wire transfer which can send the money overseas.
