In an effort to help notify other online merchants that may fall victim to online credit card fraud and consumer identity theft, Ironcompany.com® has decided to post all attempted fraudulent order information that has been submitted through our site. To protect actual cardholder identity, no true cardholder information will be posted, only fraudulent names, phone numbers, and alternate shipping addresses used by scam artists. Google and other search engines will pick this up and hopefully act as a catalyst in exposing some of these crooks and hopefully prevent further fraud from taking place. Be vigilant!
Have you been scammed? File a complaint with the FBI’s Internet Crime Complaint Center, or IC3, today http://www.ic3.gov/default.aspx

Fraudulent Check sent from issuing bank CITIBANK Deleware, One Penn’s Way, New Castle, DE 19720
from treasurer’s account of College Board, 45 Columbus Avenue, New York NY 10023-6992 and signed by “Dorothy Sexton” or “Dorothy Suton” with remittance instructions from Finance Director “L. Chasey”
Statement from College Board as posted on their website: http://www.collegeboard.org/privacy-policy/security/checks.html
Receipt of Unexpected or Unauthorized “College Board” Checks
We have recently learned of a series of checks that have been fraudulently issued by unauthorized third parties designed to appear to be issued by the College Board. The recipients have presented these fraudulent checks to our bank for payment, and payment has been refused. Please be cautious of any non–College Board third party that might engage you in a business transaction and attempt to reimburse you for goods or services with a “College Board” check. Please do not present checks appearing to be issued from a College Board account to your bank for payment unless you are absolutely certain that you have engaged in legitimate business with the College Board and are owed the amount indicated on the check. Our bank will not clear fraudulent checks.
If you have any questions about such an attempt, please call 866-680-9990, and we’ll connect you with someone who can help answer your questions.
UPDATED 12/26/2012: Email received from customer with request to send back the overpaid portion ($74195.00) included with fraudulent check. Well, imagine that!
“Thanks for the payment confirmation, regarding the remaining balance, the funds will be used for shipment, we will like you to refund the balance into the account details below:
