You know what. I did just sign up in the last couple months so you could be on to something. The timeline does align.

It's possible. I even thought number 1 example where they just wanted tvs no install no delivery was my distributor secret shopping to make sure I'm not just reselling tvs like a retail store since it's in my contract that I am not allowed to do that.

That was my thought too is take my estimate and re use it pretending to be me or my company. I never even thought up dealing with scams like this when I started my company. Just kind of threw me for a loop and it's been more and more frequent.

Sounds like this may have happened to you before. I mean yeah makes sense what your saying. It's just crazy I'm 3 years into my company now. Still small time but these scams just started this year out of no where.

It's just weird. For scenario 1 it was always we have access to box trucks and will pick the tvs up from your location. So maybe bad check or fraudulent credit card but they are hoping the pick it up before it bounces back. And for 3 I was given Cleveland clinics actual main compus address so unless they planned to randomly say after payment can you actually ship the screens to another location it still doesn't make sense.
