The fraudulent RFQs and purchase orders are used to obtain delivery of PPEs by the fraudsters who then disappear with the goods after which companies approach the department for payment, only to find out that they were defrauded.
“All suppliers and potential suppliers are cautioned to be vigilant and take precautions and ensure that RFQs and purchase orders presented are valid before they deliver any goods,” said the department.
It said suppliers and potential suppliers may call the National Procurement Office on 012 305 8621 to confirm the validity of RFQs and purchase orders.
“DCS will not be responsible for compensation of any losses suffered due to such fraudulent activities,” the department said.
