The Better Business Bureau is warning that farmers and ranchers are targets of a recent scam.

Scammers promise $4 million to a farmer or business. In return they ask for the purchase of farm equipment and help in transferring $20 million from Spain.

The scammers send faxes with the names The Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations and The European Union of Agriculture and Forestry.

If you receive this fax send it on to the BBB to be forwarded to the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations.
