 The Civil Rights Office has received many phone calls concerning the phishing email that you received last week concerning the Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE) Annual “No Change” Declaration from a sender portraying to be from our office.
"Phishing" is the most common type of cyber-attack that affects organizations. Phishing attacks can take many forms, but they all share a common goal to fraudulently get individuals and business owners to share sensitive information such as tax returns, login credentials, credit card information, or bank account details
Based on the phone calls received, it sounded like this imposter had previously sent you a similar email to try to trick you to send them your contact information and tax returns. Please see the copy of the email referenced below.
All emails concerning DBE Certification will come directly from the Civil Rights Office staff. When in doubt, please contact the Civil Rights Office staff before clicking on the link or download the attachments.
