I am receiving a letter in the mail today from a company called cyberscout. I googled the company and found mixed reports about the company. Is this a legitimate cybersecurity company? Should I take the information they send me seriously or is it potentially a scam?
Hello David. Totally a SCAM. In the US this company is NOT BBB ( Better Business Bureau ) rated, there are also scam complaints at the BBB website . They have also been linked to TransUnion which is one of the credit bureaus here in the US, I've had negative dealings with TransUnion in the past myself. Here is just an example of what TU has going for it negatively.
