NOTICE TO SUPPLIERS

Fraudulent purchase orders

The NEOMED Procurement Department has obtained information regarding some vendors receiving fraudulent requests for quotes and the subsequent receipt of fraudulent purchase orders. Several schools are being affected and the FBI could be involved.

The emailed quote request impersonates purchasing authorities and the purchase orders resemble our official request directing items to be delivered to addresses that are not associated with NEOMED.

While we cannot prevent this illegal activity, we ask that you take measures to protect yourself from this scam. All correspondence from NEOMED will come from the “@neomed.edu” domain.

Should you receive what appears to be a suspicious request or order, please forward it to purchasing@neomed.edu. and we will verify the legitimacy of the request.

Purchase order terms and conditions

Each Purchase Order placed by Northeast Ohio Medical University for goods and/or services is subject to these terms and conditions. Supplier shall be deemed to have agreed to be bound by such terms by accepting the Purchase Order, delivering the goods, and/or performing the services.
