Business License Scam is one kind of scam that is very rampant now especially for businesses that needs a license for operation. in some areas this license can be very expensive to procure, so anyone that appears like one that can give a reduction in the price would be listen to, not knowing that one is getting into more problems as one the person approaching them is a mere scammer
With license scam one is made to buy into bogus professional or business licenses which are mostly required for shops like barbershops, hair salons, auto repair shops etc
These Con artists and fraudsters do contact people in diverse ways, so you need to be careful to easily detect them and some even claim to issue licenses themselves. You don't have to fall for this scam so it is always good to take precautions
Now If you come in contact with a person or a company that claims to be able to issue you a professional or business license, your sure bet will be to contact the agency that oversees or control licensing to find out if the person is from them
Secondly, you can also contact those in charge of your trade to see if the licensing company person is legitimate.
