Office Supply Scam:
An office supply scam is a scam that involves you receiving and being charged for goods that you did not order. These scams often involve goods or services that you regularly order such as paper, printing supplies, maintenance supplies or advertising. You might receive a phone call from someone claiming to be your ‘regular supplier’, telling you that the offer is a ‘special’ or available ‘for a limited time only’. If you agree to buy any of these supplies that are offered to you, they will often be overpriced and bad quality.

 

Protect your business:
1.  Know who you buy from.
2.
  Track your purchases and payments.
3.
  Buy when you need to buy and buy what you need.  Don’t buy something you don’t need just because there is a discount promotion.
