Receipt fraud

Retailfirms have been losing over £500K per month due to bogus payments, and the loss happens due to misrepresented vouchers, goods and accounts takeover. The abilities of cybercriminals are advancing due to higher digitalisation, and now they can conduct organised and extensive schemes and make advanced targets. They are not only conducting scamsbut have set up services to help such activities. 

How Does It Happen?

  • When a firm offering the product or services adjusts the award money or discount in the overall costs and does not give the client any incentives or rewards, it is receipt fraud. It can happen when certain people steal or forge the bills to claim a higher amount from the retailers. 

  • Numerous vendors advertise fake receipts for sale. Such men produce counterfeit bills in various formats, including the physical store, packing slips, and digital documents. 

  • Such fake documents are offered at a low price (e.g. $10), targeting retailers who sell technology products. In addition, bogus sellers sometimes target a variety of firms where they modify the tactics, procedures and techniques as per the customer demand. 

  • Fake receipts can be used by criminals to demonstrate purchases from the sellers without buying any product, and one can use them to return stolen items in exchange for money. Additionally, it is used to make bogus claims about the replacement or refund where one may not have ever purchased the product.
