Destination Door County is warning business partners about an email asking for company information to aid marketing efforts. Organization officials say it's a phishing scam. The email asks whether business owners or managers would like to acquire an email list of potential clients or business professionals. It asks simple questions like a target industry, target geography, and target job titles. Phil Berndt, Destination Door County Membership Director, says responding to such questions could lead to the loss of more sensitive information.
Berndt says Destination Door County will never ask for such information. Partners should contact the organization directly if they have questions about email contacts. An example of the emailed letter is below.
