If you are a Cardiologist, or if you work for a Cardiologist, alert them to this scam.
It is a National Scam to collect money from Cardiologists, and this company has been successful since 2013 that we are aware of. Help us get the word out.
Fake Cardiology "Board" Warning
The American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine (ABCM) has received dozens of phone calls and emails from Cardiologists who have received letters from a fraudulent group operating under the names of the American Board of Cardiovascular Diseases, and most recently, they have taken to using our namesake of the American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine, demanding that Cardiologists pay $500 in order to maintain their Cardiology License. Although we are the American Board of Cardiovascular Medicine, Inc., rest assured we are not associated with this group. If you receive a letter from this group, please do not pay the bill, put the letter back in the envelope it came in and mail it to ABCM, Inc., 1767 Lakewood Ranch Blvd, Ste. 297, Bradenton, FL 34211. Thank you for cooperating with us to help shut this group down once and for all. Contact our Director, Jonni Cooper at jcooper@abcmcertification.com or call 813-324-0283 with any information you have about this group. The American College of Cardiology has a similar warning on their web site to alert Cardiologists Nationwide of the Scam.
