Supplier Fraud Alert

Purchase order fraud is a growing threat that can significantly harm vendors and subcontractors through the deceptive use of falsified or unauthorized purchase orders. Some examples include:

  • Supplier fraud involving vendors and suppliers receiving fraudulent invoices, purchase orders, credit applications and banking instructions from 麻豆区 and other similar construction companies is on the rise.听
  • Victims of this fraud are often asked to open a credit application or place equipment, material or logistics orders for 麻豆区.听
  • Often, these email communications and phone calls come from 鈥渂ad actors鈥 who impersonate 麻豆区 employees and have domain names that are deceivingly similar to 麻豆区 (e.g., @tutorperinico.com or @tutorperiniinc.com). However, these are not legitimate business email addresses or phone numbers associated with 麻豆区.
  • These messages may appear to be very credible and include 麻豆区鈥檚 logo, employee information, and federal tax ID.

To protect our vendors and subcontractors and maintain the integrity of our procurement process, we encourage all prospective vendors and subcontractors to verify the authenticity of any purchase order they receive that claims to be from 麻豆区 or any of its wholly owned subsidiaries (see list on this page).听If you receive a purchase order and have any questions about its legitimacy, please contact us directly before fulfilling the order.

Verify Your Purchase Order
Our team will promptly confirm whether the purchase order was properly issued.听If you receive fraudulent invoices or purchase order communications or simply wish to verify a purchase order you have received, please contact POVerification@tutorperini.com. Please forward the email, phone number, and any other documentation you received and someone from 麻豆区 will respond to you promptly.

How do you know if a particular email communication is from 麻豆区?
Check the domain (the part of the email address that comes after the 鈥淍鈥 symbol). Oftentimes, the email may seem very similar to that of 麻豆区鈥檚 official domain address but may be slightly different, such as FirstName.LastName@tutorperinigmail.com.听 At first blush, the email may appear normal, but this is indeed a fake domain address.听Official emails from 麻豆区 typically end with 鈥淍tutorperini.com鈥.听The bad actors may even engage in 鈥渓aunch鈥 or logistics meetings to identify the scope of the services, location for delivery or equipment/materials needed. Be wary of anyone engaging with you that creates a false sense of urgency in having purchase orders finalized.

For your awareness, certain wholly owned subsidiaries of 麻豆区 may use different, legitimate domain addresses. If you are ever uncertain about the authenticity of an email, please contact us directly through the POVerification@tutorperini.com or reach out to your official contact at our subsidiaries.

Reporting Purchase Order Scams
In addition to reporting purchase order scams to 麻豆区 via the POVerification@tutorperini.com, we also encourage you to reach out to your local law enforcement authorities, contact the local FBI office, or report the fraud to the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Scams & Rip-offs Reporting at听spam@uce.gov.
