They would typically request for items that the retailers do not stock, or in quantities that the businesses were unable to fulfil on short notice. Scammers would then recommend a “supplier” for victims to purchase these additional items from. Occasionally, screenshots of fake payment documentation, such as invoices and bank transactions, would be provided to assure the victims and convince them to make upfront payments for the orders placed with the “suppliers”. ake invoices, customers: Bulk order scams targeting renovation industry retailers re-emerge Bookmark Share ADVERTISEMENT Singapore Fake invoices, customers: Bulk order scams targeting renovation industry retailers re-emerge In less than two weeks, victims have been cheated of at least S$25,000.

ADVERTISEMENT “Victims would only realise that they had been scammed when they discovered they did not receive any payment from the ‘customer’, or when the ‘supplier’ did not deliver the goods, or when both ‘customer’ and ‘supplier’ become uncontactable,” said the police. The police advised businesses to “remain vigilant” and incorporate steps to verify any party they correspond with. Retailers are also encouraged to check a supplier’s reviews before committing to any purchases.
