Fraud scams targeting small businesses range from strange office supply orders to fake invoices. A common fraud tactic is the fake Yellow Pages invoice or other unauthorized advertising. This type of fraud may be disguised as a solicitation for an update of an existing advertising product you’ve purchased, or as an offer for a free listing when it’s actually an order for a listing requiring payment at a later date. Other times, the communication may be disguised to look like it’s from Yellow Pages when it isn’t.
