I was contacted by a female who seemed very "fast-paced" and unorganized. She mentioned that her business was going out of business and she was selling her stock at unbelievable prices.
She mentioned that she had spoken on a personal level to our CFO and he referred her to me, that I am the person who orders items for the office. I didn't want to question the CFO, so I assumed she was correct, since she knew his name.
I learned my lesson! The items came and the price was almost $300! The CFO had never heard of this company and my I feel like my reputation and credibility is now stained due to this error.
