Email Phishing Scam
We have recently been made aware of an email phishing scam that is circulating to merchants for which we need to alert you. It appears to be sent from either a generic domain of merchantservices.com or from a network provider as firstdata.com. The message directs a merchant to call a number with their MID (merchant identification number) and their TID (terminal id number) to update information. Two samples are below, but please note that you should neither reply via email nor call the number.
