Fraudulent E-mails

E-mail fraud is a common tool of identity thieves. An increasingly common fraudulent activity, called "phishing", uses official-looking e-mails to deceive consumers into disclosing their personal information. The e-mail often directs the recipient to a look-alike Website of a legitimate business, tricking consumers into believing they are responding to a valid request.

Other fraudulent e-mails entice users to make a purchase and are designed primarily to obtain credit card or bank account information. Clevedon Salerooms will never sends e-mails asking you to reply with your account or other personal information.
