✅ Scam Alert from Wholesale Computer Outlet**
Hey DeLand and Volusia neighbors!
We just saw another sneaky phishing email making the rounds (see the example attached). It claims **"General Body Constructions Inc sent you a payment"** with a big blue **"VIEW PAYMENT DETAILS"** button.
**This is almost certainly a scam.** Don't click anything.
How these scams work:
Scammers blast out thousands of these emails pretending to be from random companies (construction firms are popular lately).
- The goal? Get you curious enough to click the button.
- Once you do, it usually takes you to a **fake login page** that looks like your email, bank, or a payment portal.
- There they steal your username/password, install malware, or trick you into entering credit card/banking details.
Real companies don't send vague "you got money!" emails with big clickable buttons out of the blue. Legitimate payments come through your actual bank app, accounting software, or official portals.
How to protect yourself and your family:
1. Never click links or buttons - in unsolicited payment/shipping/invoice emails.
2. Delete it immediately (and empty your trash).
3. Verify directly — Log into your bank or email account manually (type the address yourself, don't click).
4. Check your accounts regularly for anything suspicious.
5. Use strong, unique passwords + enable 2-factor authentication (2FA) everywhere.
6. Keep your antivirus/antimalware updated (we can help set this up if needed).
At Wholesale Computer Outlet, we see these scams daily — and help customers clean up the mess when they click. Whether it's email security setup, virus removal, custom secure PCs, or just peace of mind, we're here for you.
**Got a suspicious email?** Forward it to us (or bring your computer by the shop) and we'll take a look.
Stay safe out there!
