Subject: SBA Scam Alert
Good Morning. This release concerns a Scam Alert based on reports from SBA districts across the country that someone is using stationary with what appears to be an SBA letterhead to small businesses across the country, advising recipients that they may be eligible for a tax rebate under the Economic Stimulus Act, and that SBA is assessing their eligibility for such a rebate. The letter asks the small business to provide the name of its bank and account number.
Needless to say SBA doesn't do that, but a lot of people won't know that. This release announces a Scam Alert warning small businesses not to respond to letters falsely claiming to have been sent by the SBA asking for bank account information in order to qualify them for federal tax rebates.
Please do all that is possible to get the word out to your small business customers. Thanks.
