Fraudulent Account has been created with EBROGDON@cs.com
I was told by Customer Service Rep "O'Neil" at 11:50 a.m. today (5/27/22) to log via AOL Feedback my problem, even though he indicated he was escalating my request with regard to a fraudulent e-mail account (CS.COM) having been created with my daughter's maiden name (), my home address and my home phone number and used to create an account with www,BETUS.COM.PA, a sports betting website. I was alerted via my I.D. Theft monitoring service through my employer, the federal judiciary, that the account with the sports betting organization was created on 4/21/22. The *@cs.com account is obviously fraudulent as my daughter has verified that she does not use a cs.com e-mail address and she lives in another state, and did not create this account. Please close the *@cs.com account. Thank you. **

Hi.
It seems that account has been spoofed. Email spoofing is the forgery of an email header so the message appears to be coming from somewhere other than the actual source. It's similar to writing a forged return address on a letter. Scammers use spoofing because your contacts are more likely to open the email if it looks like it's coming from you. Spoofed emails are sent from outside the AOL network and attackers don't have access to that particular email address. We encourage you to report the offense so we can ensure that action is taken, here: https://help.aol.com/email-support
In the meantime, please create a filter to send any incoming emails from it to Spam or Trash or add it to your blocked list.

It is critical that the EBROGDON@cs.com be closed to avoid further identity theft incidents. Thank you. Carla Brogdon
