Did everyone get a security alert email from CarGurus?

Hi Greg,

We have noticed that some people have been receiving fraudulent emails claiming to be from CarGurus and asking users to log in to confirm their identity. We would advise that you do not respond to these emails or click on any links or attachments.

All legitimate emails from our team will come from an email address ending in "cargurus.com".


Sincerely,

Your CarGurus Team
 
Hey Greg, no need for alarm. Our dealers have reported an uptick in the number of phony phishing emails they've received lately, we're just trying to remind everyone to stay frosty & remain vigilant. Thanks!
