Online scams continue to grow every year, and one of the most common methods used by cybercriminals is email impersonation. Recently, we discovered that scammers have been pretending to represent our company and reaching out to clients using email addresses that look similar to ours but are not legitimate. This article explains what is happening, how to recognize fraudulent messages, and how to protect yourself when communicating with us.
What Is Email Impersonation?
Email impersonation happens when scammers create domains or email addresses that closely resemble a real company’s contact information. They do this to trick clients into believing the message is official, hoping to steal sensitive data, receive payments, or gain unauthorized access to ongoing projects. These fake addresses often differ by only one letter, symbol, or domain extension-making them easy to overlook if you are not paying close attention.
Important: We Only Use One Official Email Address
To keep your communication secure, please remember that our team always writes only from the official email address:
If you receive a message from any other email-even if it looks almost identical-it is not from us.
How to Recognize Fake Emails Pretending to Be Us
To help you stay protected, here are key warning signs that indicate the email is not authentic:
The sender address contains extra letters, numbers, or unusual symbols
The domain is slightly altered (e.g., ".co" instead of ".com")
The message asks for payments, passwords, or confidential details
The tone feels urgent, threatening, or strange
The email includes unexpected attachments or suspicious links
The communication style does not match our usual professional approach
If anything feels unusual, stop and verify before replying.
What to Do if You Receive a Suspicious Email
If you think someone is impersonating us, follow these steps:
Do not respond to the message.
Do not click on any links or open attachments.
Double-check the sender address carefully.
Forward the email to our official contact: info@davydovconsulting.com
