Love & Money

Source: Printing Industry Credit Bureau, February 5, 2025

There is a resurgence of an old scam in which a supposed customer requests a quote, sends payment, and the unsuspecting recipient fulfills the order—only to later discover that the payment was either fraudulent or altered. By that time, the victim has already invested in materials, postage, and labor, making it too late to recover the losses.

The only way to stop these criminals is to raise awareness.

PICB shared the following cautionary poem for Valentine's Day:

Mouse

When it’s love at first sight, risky behavior might take a bite!

Trusting customers who are not yet known

may result in slow-pays, no-pays, and recovering your money may be a fight!

But with PICB as Cupid on your side, your profits may yet be sewn

because those non-paying swine can’t take flight

when PICB’s due diligence reveals their truth and their con is blown

your profits are saved which is our delight!
