Urgent update from the BMD Group: Fraudulent activity alert
BMD has been made aware by the Federal Police (Money Laundering Unit) of fraudulent activity involving a fake Australian Business Number (ABN) set up under the name of BMD Constructions. This scam is targeting our valued clients, suppliers and subcontractors attempting to redirect payments to a new, unauthorised bank account. BMD can confirm that we have not changed bank accounts or payment details.
We’d like to remind you of the following important points:
- Do not change payment details: Under no circumstances should you change the payment details for your transactions with BMD Constructions based on an email request. Any such request is likely fraudulent.
- Verify directly with BMD: If you receive any communication asking you to alter payment details, please contact us directly at (07) 3893 7000 or to brisbane@bmd.com.au or reach out directly to your BMD contact to verify the authenticity of the request.
- Stay vigilant: Be cautious of any suspicious emails or messages that appear to be from BMD Constructions that request changes to payment information. Always verify with us directly before taking any action.
We take this matter very seriously and are working closely with the Federal Police to address this issue. Your cooperation and vigilance are crucial in preventing potential financial loss.
If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.
Thank you for your attention to this important matter.
Should you have any queries, please contact brisbane@bmd.com.au.
