With an average of 3.4 billion scams and robocalls reported per month, it’s important to know how to protect yourself and your team. In particular, Google has reported several incidents of third-party companies impersonating Google My Business and trying to mislead unsuspecting business owners into giving away logins and financial information.

How does Slice protect me as a small business owner?

Often, these scammers claim to be “Google specialists” or calling on “behalf of Google” to increase a business’ search rankings as a paid service. To validate whether or not someone calling is a legitimate Google employee, you can ask them to send you an email to affirm their identity — any Google employee will have access to an @google.com email account.

Other online ordering companies will also impersonate Slice to steal your GMB. If you’re not sure you’re talking to Slice, you can always hang up and call your Slice Restaurant Support Team. DO NOT give out your pin unless you’re 100% positive you’re speaking with the authorized manager of your account.

If you’re an existing partner and you want more information on GMB, contact your Restaurant Support Team at partner@slicelife.com or call (855) 892-8976.
