3M Mom, Pop & Sons Market — Local services in Richmond

We are writing to inform you about a concerning situation involving an EBT scam that is currently circulating. Some individuals are falsely claiming that our business is involved in this scam, which is completely untrue. We want to assure you that we have no affiliation with or involvement in any fraudulent activities related to the EBT program.

It seems that scammers are using our name to give the appearance of legitimacy to their deceptive schemes. These scammers may contact you, or others in the community, attempting to collect sensitive information or mislead you into believing that we are part of the scam. Please be aware that our business does not conduct, nor has it ever conducted, any such activities.

As a responsible business, we want to make it clear that we would never risk the integrity of our company for a quick dollar. Our focus has always been on building long-term relationships with our customers based on trust, quality, and transparency—not engaging in dishonest or harmful practices. Integrity is at the core of everything we do, and we are fully committed to operating ethically and responsibly.

Additionally, we want to clarify that we cannot and would never run a transaction without the physical EBT card and its PIN number. Any claim suggesting that we can process EBT transactions without these two critical pieces of information is completely false. Furthermore, our business hours are from 8:00 AM onward, and we cannot process any transactions before that time, as no one is available to do so. If you are contacted about a transaction outside of our regular hours, it is certainly a scam.

If you ever receive suspicious calls, emails, or messages that claim to be from us, we urge you not to provide any personal information. If in doubt, please reach out to us directly through our official contact channels.

We are actively working with the California Department of Social Services (CDSS) and local law enforcement to address this issue and prevent further misuse of our name. We take this matter seriously and are committed to protecting both your trust and your personal information.

Thank you for your continued support and understanding during this time. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact us directly.

Sincerely, 3M...

This establishment is involved in card skimming somehow they obtained my snap card information and used my card at 12a in California on January 5, 2025 and I live in Fort Wayne Indiana. Imagine waking up to check your benefits and see that they were loaded onto your card and that they were spent by someone else.
