There are a few common scams in the promotional products industry. One of the most frequent scams involves fraudulent orders that are placed with a stolen credit card. The payment will appear to be valid and the distributor fulfills the order, but when the actual credit card holder notices the charge and initiates a charge-back, the distributor loses the payment. While it may be difficult to identify scammers after the deed, let alone prosecute them, there are some consistent giveaways that can tip you off to a potential scam before you become a victim.
