PANDEMIC OPENS DOOR TO FRAUDSTERS AND THREATENS SAFETY OF FRONTLINE WORKERS

Refinitiv would like to offer hospital groups and governments support as they source personal protective equipment for use in the battle against COVID-19. We are offering complimentary essential due diligence reports to help expedite the sourcing and on-boarding of new suppliers that provide specific materials for battling this pandemic. 

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a perfect marketplace for opportunistic fraud schemes targeting the healthcare industry as they scramble to acquire necessary and scarce medical supplies. Recently the FBI issued a warning to the medical community “to exercise due diligence and appropriate caution when dealing with any vendors with whom they have never worked and/or of which they’ve never heard, and when relying on unidentified third-party brokers in the supply chain”.

The FBI recently uncovered an elaborate scam promising to supply 39 million non-existent N95 face masks, which are essential to frontline workers and in serious short supply. Fortunately, no money exchanged hands – this time.

With the global supply chain experiencing significant disruption and medical needs crucial, it is imperative that healthcare providers can continue to deliver necessary patient care.
