A woman claiming to be from Kings Office Supplies, said she talk with our paybale department and was told to talk with me. She had some really good deals on office supplies because her company was relocating. She went on to quote great prices for every day items. She said to me that the woman she talked with that gave her my name said we had limited storage but I would be the one to know what I can use. When she told me quantites were in grosses I said that I can't use that much and she offered to break them down. I stupidly gave a small order. I then asked for her to send me an email with her quoted products and she said she didn't have acess to her computer. That should have been my first red flag!
She went on to say that I could order up to three times at the prices she quoted before the regular prices were inforced since i helped her out with my order.
Next day my gut feeling on this kicked in and I went on line get a phone number to cancel the order and this scam report came up. I read it and it is almost exactly what happened in the report numbered 571802.
I have contacted the accounting department and they are aware of this incident. They will be watching for this invoice and the items being sent.
