Recently, we became aware that another entity created an imposter website that
very closely resembles the authentic Davcoh Computer Services LLC ("DAVCOH")
website, in addition to engaging in credit card fraud. This is commonly
known as spoofing or pharming.
This matter
has been reported to the Attorney General's Office, the FBI, as well as local and
nationwide law enforcement officials and government agencies. In addition, it has been reported to
the national credit reporting bureaus. Due to the international ties of
this crime, we are currently working closely with international law enforcement
authorities including Europol in
this investigation.
We want to
inform you, our customers and business associates of this, so you can be
educated about fraud prevention, and how to protect yourself.
There are some slight differences between the phony website and our authentic
website.
The phony website is not spelled exactly as
www.davcoh.com. If you use any other
website besides www.davcoh.com, then this is
not our company. The phony website may use a similar name with very slight
changes, but it is not www.davcoh.com, so
check the exact spelling of the URL address you are using.
There may also
be phony email names on the imposter website. All authentic emails from
DAVCOH end in davcoh.com. This is similar to our authentic website.
Other signs of
an imposter site, may be a toll free 800, 888, 866, or 877 phone number.
DAVCOH does not
have any phone number besides our local 617 number. We are a business in
Newton, MA, and have a local Newton, MA exchange phone number only.
Other signs of an imposter site, may be that they take credit cards on the web.
DAVCOH does NOT take credit cards on the web, our payment terms
are cash or check only.
DAVCOH also
does NOT sell any products over the internet or phone, or engage in any
ecommerce or telephone money transactions. We provide services on-site and
in-person, and all customer payments are received in-person. The website
is solely used for marketing and advertising of our local services.
DAVCOH will
never ask for you to send personal or financial information by, in response to,
or via a link in an e-mail.
DAVCOH is a
very reputable and honest firm with strong integrity. We have hundreds of
great clients in the area, check out our testimonial page, or call us for a
local reference in your area that you can talk to.
Thank you for
being careful, if you have any questions or concerns, feel free to call us
directly at our Newton phone number on the left panel of this web page.
Best Regards,
Davcoh Computer Services
