Costco email scam
Lately here have been a number of people that have been asking about some emails that they have received and which claim to be from Costco Canada and also other emails telling them about their accounts needing to be fixed. Could these emails be legit or they are just another scam. This is what we shall be looking at in this you have been selected to receive an exclusive reward Costco email.

About the email scam
These guys will tell you to go complete some survey or offers which we said to be 30 seconds long for you to get started. I guess once yo complete this is when they want you to believe you could be part of the people who will be receiving this reward. You should be careful to avoid being led to some sites which are not safe or which may ask you for confidential information. Some emails from these scammers ask you for your credit card number and you want to avoid such information being disclosed. Once you complete this survey you still don’t get anything. Costco has denied the claim to be their emails and are warning people about these emails. The emails have also been in existence for some time and seems like thwy have come back.
Verdict
There is no doubt that these emails are fake. Costco has already confirmed this and hey may just be trying to earn money by making you complete surveys which don’t benefit you but they will get paid for it. If you have been scammed or have more questions regarding the Costco Canada email scams please let us know in the comments and also share your experience.
