Type of a scam Fake Invoice/Supplier Bill
Representing themselves as Yellow Pages Services, a company emailed my place of business with a fake invoice to try to receive a payment of $699.99.
The email listed the following:
"Dear ***,
This is a billing reminder that your invoice no. 93881 which was generated on 11/30/2015 is due.
Your payment method is: Check
Invoice: 9381
Balance Due: $699.99 USD
Please see the attached invoice.

Upon further review, "Appleton" – the city location of our business was not capitalized, they also failed to type in the same invoice number throughout the email. – The email itself came from a personal email address of "Lorine Graves" <[email protected]> – a bit fishy.
I personally visited both the website listed in the email as well as YP.com and they are not connected in anyway. I also contacted the marketing department at YP and they have nothing listed under our business for an account with them. All of this leads me to believe that this is a scam targeting the small business I work for.

Received an invoice for payment on a service that we knew nothing about. they wanted $699.99 for some package deal through Yellow Pages. The phone # does not work – if you look up the address to the company in Florida it does not exists and neither does the Website.
