New Email Scam Disguised as Google Trademark Warning

The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department is warning about a new scam that is making the rounds, and it looks surprisingly real.

The Texarkana Arkansas Police Department is warning about a new scam that is making the rounds, and it looks surprisingly real. Victims receive an email from a legitimate Google AppSheet address, warning of a “trademark violation.” The message includes a link to a fake login page where users are asked to enter their Google username and password.

Experts say it’s a clever trick — the email appears genuine because scammers are exploiting Google’s AppSheet platform to send the message. Once you enter your credentials, cybercriminals can steal them instantly.

Officials urge users to stay alert: avoid clicking on suspicious links, double-check web addresses, and if you get an alarming notice, go directly to the company’s official website instead of using links in the email.
