Just like everyone else reporting IT MGT I received an invoice for printer supplies. The charge is for 2 units at $598.99 a piece for a total of $1197.98 with a freight charge of $22.98. I also received the flyer that said i would get a $100 gift card of I sent in my name and ext. with payment. I know for a fact the is a scam because our printer sends a message when toner is low to the shop right down the street from us and they will run over supplies. I also showed the invoice to our sales rep down there. He told me they do not partner with IT MGT and it is a scam. Any bills for supplies would come directly form them. As it has been ever since we got the printers. Our company name and address are all correct. They do how ever have an employee's name listed who would never be incharge of order supplies.
Yesterday I received the email below.
Accounts Payable,
Hope all is well. I just wanted to make sure you've received this last terms invoice. Please see attached and let me know any payment status that's available. The preferred customer rewards are being processed to your attention.
We received an invoice in the amount of $1,220.96 from it mgt for dell printer supplies that we did not order (2 units of toner at 598.99 a piece, and a "premium freight charge" of 22.98). Invoice had the correct address, phone number and contact name for our office manager.
I have not, nor would i ever pay that much for ink. We don't order ink often, and i am currently the only one in the office who buys it; this is not who i go through for our needs. I have never heard of this company, and they are not in our system as a vendor. I could not find a website for them at all online, but reviewS) here on yscam.com were reporting the exact same incident. We received an identical flyer for a "$100 visa gift card upon payment" with our mailed invoice. Moreover, the company claims to be in carson city, nv but the postmark was from los angeles.
We received an invoice in the amount of $1,220.96 from it mgt for hp printer supplies that were neither ordered nor received, hence this was a completely bogus invoice. The unit pricing was not inline with normal supplies. The invoice had the correct name and phone number for our accounting director and looked very convincing and professional.There was also a charge for expedited shipping of $22.98.
They contacted our main line and asked to speak with accounts payable. They discussed the invoice with our accounts payable person, so this scam involved social engineering as well. Discrepancies include the following: 1) they are not in our system as a current vendor of ours. 2) the supplies are for a model of printer that we do not own In this case a p1102). 3) the supplies are extremely overpriced A new printer of that model costs less than $200 and the invoice was for supplies with a $598.
99 unit price. 4) our internal controls require signing off that we received what was being invoiced before we pay.
