I called QBO after starting the signup process and was told it was a scam, but now I'm not sure and want to continue if this is something I should be doing.

    Thanks for reaching out to the Community, Renae T.

     

    SecurityMetrics is an official partner of Intuit. They provide streamlined PCI DSS compliance services for QuickBooks Payments accounts.

     

    After creating an account with SecurityMetrics, you'll be able to complete their FastPass and purchase a PCI package that works best for your business.

     

    I've also included a detailed resource about working with PCI compliance which may come in handy moving forward: Intuit Security Center - PCI Compliance

     

    I'll be here to help if there's any additional questions. Have an awesome Friday!

    I truly appreciate you voicing your thoughts, @pedbender. My goal is to ensure you receive the precise information and assistance needed for your PCI compliance concerns. Let’s explore this further.

     

    First, are you referring to an email you recently received? If so, please note that Intuit has been sending product messages to remind our customers about PCI compliance. Here are a few things to look for if you’re not sure an email came from Intuit.

     

    • We’ll never ask for your personal info in an email.
    • Our emails will always come from an email address that ends with @intuit.com. This includes @e.intuit.com.
    • Any link we send you in an email will always be for an intuit.com address.

     

    However, if the email is not from one of these addresses, it is likely not from Intuit but rather from Security Metrics.

     

    Though Security Metrics is an official partner of Intuit for PCI compliance, you are not limited to them for your compliance solutions. Engaging with them ensures you’re partnering with a reputable provider, but there are other options available as well.

     

    If your concern revolves around something else, please share the specifics so I can assist you more effectively.

    They are emailing at a group address where I can not confirm email headers.

    They can email me at my known address as admin and I will not pay for any service.

    We use them online.

    They need to be secure and compliant.

    Our internal policy is extreme.

    I would write up an employee that wrote down or record any CC data.

    We take it from customers over the phone and enter it directly into Intuit.

    We are secure against key loggers.

    In the past when with the bank, PCI compliance wanted my system to be less secure and open a backdoor for them.

     

    I will block them in our groups and then know where to find me.

    Glad to find another vendor.

     

    And I have studied the PCI law.

     

    As someone said, the scam is selling me to outside service.
