Beware of rising cases of impersonation!
Of late, it has come to our notice that unknown overseas entities through impersonation of reputed purported buyers, are placing export orders with Indian Exporters.
The modus operandi may be illustrated as under:
The destination country is different from the purported reputed buyer’s country;
The email id from which the order is placed/ correspondences, at times have slight differences from that of the purported reputed buyer;
The consignee is changed by the purported buyer while consignment is on high seas;
Request for change in payment terms when goods are in high seas;
SWIFT Payment messages which are fake are shared by purported buyer
Beware of unauthorised agents/ consultants approaching you for offering services for ECGC related matters. ECGC does not appoint agents/consultants to work on behalf of the Company. IRDA approved empaneled brokers are only allowed to procure/ service the policies based on the mandate provided by the exporters/policyholders. Exporters/policyholders to exercise due caution in this regard.
DUE CAUTION TO BE EXERCISED BY NON-STATUS HOLDER EXPORTERS.
