Protect Your Business From Scammers!

Scammers often target lumber and building material retailers – especially during the busy building season. These scams can take many forms, from fake invoices to fraudulent calls or emails claiming to be from trusted vendors or service providers.

  • Stay alert to unexpected requests for information or payments
  • Train your team to verify contacts before sharing system access
  • Report any suspicious activity right away
